A YOUNG author is spreading an inspiring message to children across Australia through a beautiful fairy-tale she published last year.
Don’t Give Up On Your Dreams was written by 23-year-old Narre South Woman Wida Tausif to encourage children to pursue their passion.
The book is geared to children aged eight and up and is about a beautiful young princess named Mary who wants to live an ordinary life where she has the freedom to follow her dreams. She is very talented; she has a love for music, writes her own songs and is known far and wide as one of the best singers in her town, Dreamatica. However her father, the King, is against her desire to be a performer and wants her to live and act like a Princess. Mary defies her father and sneaks out to perform. Her popularity as a singer rises, and she must decide between her dream and her family.
“Dreams will only come true if you chase after them,” Wida said. “My dream was to become an author and because I have a passion for children’s fiction, I decided to turn this passion into reality and make my dream come true.”
Don’t Give Up On Your Dreams is the first book Wida has written, and has so far received very positive feedback. She has since completed her second fictional work and currently working on her third.
Besides writing children’s books, Wida enjoys writing poetry, and has had some of her works published in magazines and websites across the globe.
“I believe words can unite people; therefore, I would like to use my poetry to promote peace,” she said.
