At its most basic, philosophy is about learning how to think about
the world around us. It should come as no surprise, then, that
children make excellent philosophers! Naturally inquisitive,
pint-size scholars need little prompting before being willing to
consider life's big questions, however strange or impractical.
Plato & Co. introduces children and curious grown-ups to the
lives and work of famous philosophers, from Socrates to Descartes,
Einstein, Marx, and Wittgenstein. Each book in the series features
an engaging and often funny story that presents basic tenets of
philosophical thought alongside vibrant color illustrations.
Sprawled in his favorite armchair, Dr. Freud notices a peculiar
phrase in pages of his notebook: "preaching to the fishes." What
could he have meant by this? If there's one thing he has learned
working as a psychoanalyst, it's that the best way to make sense of
yourself is through your dreams and so he settles down for a nice
long nap. But no sooner does his head hit the pillow than he begins
to hear voices! A frightened fish with a childhood memory lodged in
its throat coaxes Dr. Freud into the cold water, where his ideas
come to life through an unforgettable cast of characters, including
a loquacious carp and three frogs Id, Ego, and Superego locked in
fierce competition for a single waterlily.
