TEHRAN (IBNA) --
Children’s fiction book ‘Jeremy Worried about the Wind’ (2020) by Scottish ‎children’s author and high school philosophy teacher Pamela Butchart has been ‎published in Persian and is available to Iranian children. ‎
Targeting children aged 3 - 5 years and illustrated by Kate Hindley, the book has been translated into Persian by Mohammad Ara. Valeh (Narengi) Publishing has released ‘Jeremy Worried about the Wind’ in 32 pages.
A quirky, touching fully illustrated picture book that will open up important conversations about worries and anxiety from Blue Peter prize-winning author, Pamela Butchart.
Jeremy is a worrier. He worries about odd socks, spotty bananas, evil squirrels, burnt toast, dinosaurs and, most of all . . . the wind! His friend Maggie isn’t worried about anything - after all, what’s the worst that could happen? But when Maggie decides to go outside and play in the wind, Jeremy must act fast to keep her out of danger, and he is soon to discover that a bit of courage leads to the most exciting adventures.
A funny and reassuring story from the bestselling author of Wigglesbottom Primary, and with charming and humorous artwork by Kate Hindley, illustrator of best-selling ‘The Same But Different Too’ and ‘You Must Bring a Hat’.
Pamela Butchart has an MA in philosophy from the University of Dundee and a PGDE from the University of Edinburgh. After graduating, Butchart became a philosophy teacher at Harris Academy in Dundee.
She began writing children’s books after her fiancé gave her a book on how to write for children.[1] Butchart has said that Judith Kerr is one of her influences.
