FISHERS, Ind., July 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Author Alya Nuri -- inspired by her
mother who is an author, speaker and business coach -- started writing when
she was just seven years old and became an author at the age of eight.

At just nine years old, Alya has already read almost 1400 books, written three
articles and a series of three books on "Things Every Kid Should Know":
Smoking, Alcohol and Drugs.

Alya Nuri wants to help her peers understand the dangers of things they'll
most likely be tempted with in the near future: "My mother taught me very
early in my life that these things are bad; I know they are, and now it's my
duty to help others understand it too, before it is too late for them,"
explains Alya Nuri.

Alya is finishing her 5th grade through the home schooling system. She loves
to read, paint, participate in various sports, as well as swim. She wants to
continue with her passion of writing and public speaking to raise awareness
among the youth of these dangerous substances. It is also Alya's ambition to
become a Veterinarian in the future.

At the age of nine, this young author hopes to eradicate some of the major
challenges while growing up in America. Alya Nuri is a girl that wants nothing
more than to help others her age stay far away from drugs, alcohol and
tobacco.

"I have read over a hundred books on these three topics and understand why it
is not good for anyone to smoke, drink, or take drugs," Alya Nuri explains.

"I am hoping to educate the youth about these topics before they get pressured
to start these bad habits," adds Alya.

With more than 1,700 alcohol-related deaths each year among college students,
and over 80,000 kids trying smoking for the first time in America, Alya Nuri's
series of books could not have come at a better time. Each book aims to open a
dialogue among the youth of today in a language that they all share.

"Alya's strength is her ability to communicate with others in a loving way; we
praise God each day for having gifted her with this ability," says Alya Nuri's
mother, Zohra Sarwari.
