When it's time for children to pick up their first book, what should we expect them to learn from it?
Should children's books be confined to stories and themes that deal only with the familiar? Or can one take the risk of challenging children to think about more complex issues? And what does this all mean for their character development and success?
Our guest this week is Sara Ghannoum, the author of the children’s book series Tom Alien, who discovers life on Earth and all the issues that come with living here.
Sara spends her days managing the emotions of her two little aliens, Maha and Saif, which inspires her creations. Previously, she worked in the medical and nanotechnology fields and has been published in various scientific journals. She grew up between Australia and Lebanon and currently resides in Dubai.
