New York, NY, September 27, 2023 --(PR.com)-- Shohreh Afshar has completed her new book, “Maryam and the Stranger”: a captivating story that centers around a young girl who is faced with a terrible dilemma when a stranger pulls up in a car and tells her that her mum has been in an accident and he's from the hospital. He tells her to jump in; Maryam is further confused by the fact the stranger knows her name. Thankfully, she’s a smart girl, refusing to listen to the stranger, and running home. Maryam then has a long conversation with her parents, and they discuss ways of keeping her safe.

“When Maryam encounters a stranger and feels uncomfortable, she relies on her intuition and logical thinking to protect herself,” writes Afshar. “Her experience leads her to an interesting discussion with her parents, during which, her curious mind comes up with many questions about different possible situations where she may encounter strangers.”

Published by Page Publishing, Shohreh Afshar’s engaging tale, simply written and highly accessible, is a vital story for young readers to help them discover what to do when faced with a stranger or any situation in which they don’t feel safe. From a book cover illustrating two girls oblivious of the stranger watching them; to a preface packed with educational material for parents and educators; to a story well reflecting the cognitive and psychological characteristics of the related age group; to a loving and trusting family dynamism required for effective parenting; to a hot-line information for children to reach out; right to a back cover encouraging readers to endlessly question, there is a lot going for this book in terms of educating in a holistic and inclusive approach. “Maryam and the Stranger” is the perfect tool for parents, guardians and educators to connect with young readers and equip them with the knowledge they need to protect themselves.

Readers who wish to experience this compelling work can purchase “Maryam and the Stranger” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
