Adnan Ariffin was born at the turning of the tide on a remote seaside town of Port Dickson, Malaysia and grew up with Malays, Chinese and Indians learning to speak some of their languages. He left the seaside town for the bright lights of Kuala Lumpur, and later other towns in east and west coast of Malaysia where he got the inspiration to write his first historical fiction novel in between drinking coffee at Starbucks and watching the demanding local patrons.

When not writing bestselling novels, he likes to party with rock stars and dance the tango under a full moon, letting out the occasional scream.

This book heralds a new line in thinking why the illiteracy rate has been maintained at the same level for decades. It's easy to blame the child as if he were the problem, and not the failure of instruction. There is a basic foundation for teaching that has to be in place for learning to occur. For learning to occur one needs to master the first R – Reading without which the other two R’s (wRiting and aRithmetics) are difficult to attain. The bottom line is that illiteracy has remained the same throughout the years because of wrong teaching methods. Once a kid has already disengaged because of being confused, fun and encouragement and motivation will not work. This is why illiteracy level has not come down in more than 30 years. Educators have tried everything except tackling the root cause of why kids disengage from learning to read in the first place. This book tells exactly why kids shut down from learning to read. This book tells you how to prevent kids from disengaging from learning to read. When ideas from this book are implemented illiteracy will be eradicated.

Saloni Chopra is an actor by choice and a writer by accident. While one helps her serotonin, the other helps her mortgage*. Raised in Australia, but firmly believes it’s not where she “grew up”, because that happened in the heart of Mumbai, an over-populated city where she ironically learnt to take up more space by fighting for rights she didn’t even know she would need one day. From falling into a puddle of quicksand and staying calm enough to not get sucked in, to the art of finding her own voice in a patriarchal society - she learnt everything in her early 20s the hard way (only one of the above is true). There came a point when Saloni realised that if she was going to keep living a life that was such a dramatic page-turner, she may as well write a book about it. * And she doesn’t even have a mortgage
