This timeless fable tells the story of Yannis, who, after a decade of faithful service, is given three gold pieces. Instead of keeping the coins, he wisely exchanges them for advice from his former employer. The narrative beautifully illustrates how intangible wisdom and good counsel can be far more valuable than monetary wealth, guiding Yannis through life's challenges. It's a gentle story perfect for discussing concepts of value, hard work, and the importance of good choices with children aged 4-11.
Ten years of faithful service to a rich man earns Yannis only three pieces of gold which he immediatley gives back to the rich man in return for advice that proves to be of greater value.
