Fahri the Magic Boy
I am incredibly proud to share this deeply personal project with you - a story that has been growing in my heart for quite some time. "Fahri the Magic Boy" isn't just a children's book; it's my love letter to every child who experiences the world a little differently, and to everyone who supports them on their journey. And, I don't care if it's not academic. I try to follow my heart when developing my academic projects anyway. After over two decades together, I've watched Fahri navigate a world that doesn't always understand his dyspraxia with such grace and creativity. I've seen him transform moments that could be frustrating into something beautiful - just like the character in my book who sees falling blocks as fireworks. This isn't fiction for me; this is the daily wonder of loving someone who truly sees the world differently. The Turkish word "şaşkın" (bewildered) that Fahri prefers over "clumsy" - that's real....
