Sonya Rehman, journalist and author said: “I’m so grateful to the British Council library in Lahore for launching my first-ever children’s book, Wolfie. I began writing Wolfie during the lockdown, in a bid to connect with my inner child and to also produce work which the younger generation would both enjoy and learn something from. Wolfie is the story of a timid little dog who embarked on a journey that eventually led him to realize how strong and brave he was all along! I hope young readers enjoy a book which was written with nothing but love. I’m so thankful to my publisher, Mehr F Husain of ZUKA Books, and to the illustrator of Wolfie’s cover, Maryam Akram, for believing in my first offering for Pakistan’s young generation of readers. I could not have done it without them.”
