The Dubai Future Foundation has launched an interactive book to inspire a new generation of leaders.

Titled Hind and Mohammad’s Journey to the Future, the book is the first in a series of future-focused comic books that aims to introduce valuable life skills, concepts and tools to empower children to tackle the challenges of tomorrow.

More than 300,000 copies of the book, in both Arabic and English, will be distributed to school students aged between six and 14.

Illustrated by Emirati designer Khawla Al Muheiri, the 20-page story centers around how Hind and Mohammad embark on a journey of self-discovery when they are assigned to present their dreams in front of their classmates.

The book also has a space where children can write a letter to their future selves.
