Every child dreams — but few get the chance to turn those dreams into something the world can read.
Meet Muhammad Anas Zaman, a bright and imaginative 2nd grader from Bengaluru, who recently achieved what many adults only aspire to — becoming a published author!

His book, “My Football Dream,” isn’t just a story about a game — it’s a story of passion, discipline, and the power of words.

✨ The Beginning of a Dream

Like most children his age, Anas loved stories. Whether it was listening to bedtime tales or creating imaginary worlds with his toys, he had an instinct for narration — a spark that caught his parents’ attention early on.

But here’s the interesting part — while Anas loved imagining stories, he wasn’t always confident about expressing them in words. He’d often start narrating something magical and then stop midway, unsure how to continue.

That’s where PlanetSpark stepped in — a platform that helps kids discover their voice through public speaking, storytelling, creative writing, and communication training.

His journey at PlanetSpark wasn’t about memorizing words or mugging up grammar rules. It was about thinking creatively, speaking confidently, and writing fearlessly.

🧩 The PlanetSpark Way of Learning

At PlanetSpark, every student’s journey begins with curiosity. The mentors don’t just teach; they ignite imagination.

Anas’s teacher noticed his keen interest in football and used it as a bridge to make writing fun. Instead of starting with a blank page, they began with a discussion —
“What if your favorite football player could talk to you?”
“What if you were in the World Cup final?”

Soon, Anas started weaving those what-ifs into stories. That’s when his writing truly came alive.

PlanetSpark follows a “learn by doing” approach. Classes are highly interactive — filled with speaking challenges, story circles, and creativity games. Students aren’t passive learners; they’re storytellers, speakers, and thinkers in action.

For Anas, that made all the difference.

📖 “My Football Dream” — More Than Just a Story

The title may sound simple, but Anas’s story carries depth and imagination that reflects maturity beyond his years.

“My Football Dream” captures a child’s ambition, determination, and belief in chasing dreams — even when they seem far away. His storytelling brings together a blend of innocence and insight, showing how children view ambition not as pressure but as play.

The publication of his book earned him two prestigious recognitions —
🏅 Emerging Young Author Certificate
🏅 Published Author Certificate

Each certificate is not just a piece of paper but a celebration of creativity — something PlanetSpark nurtures in every young learner.

🌈 The Role of Mentorship at PlanetSpark

Behind every young achiever, there’s a mentor who believed before anyone else did.

At PlanetSpark, teachers are not traditional instructors. They’re trained mentors who use storytelling, real-life examples, and personalized feedback to help each child improve.

Anas’s teacher encouraged him to channel his passion for football into writing. She helped him structure his ideas, guided him on how to build characters, and most importantly — taught him how to express emotions through words.

That’s a core part of the PlanetSpark style of working — identifying each child’s strengths and transforming them into communication skills that last a lifetime.

It’s not about grades. It’s about growth.
It’s not about assignments. It’s about achievement.

🗣️ Building Confidence Beyond the Classroom

When Anas first joined PlanetSpark, he was shy and soft-spoken. Like many young children, he feared being wrong. But through interactive speaking activities and fun storytelling sessions, he started to open up.

At PlanetSpark, even small wins are celebrated — the first confident introduction, the first creative paragraph, the first story told in front of peers.

And slowly, that confidence began to spill into other areas of Anas’s life.
He began expressing his thoughts more freely, asking curious questions, and participating in class with enthusiasm.

When the idea of publishing a story came up, he didn’t hesitate. He said, “I want to try.”

That “I want to try” is what PlanetSpark stands for — helping every child say yes to opportunities that push them beyond comfort zones.

🚀 The PlanetSpark Philosophy: Every Child Has a Voice

At its heart, PlanetSpark believes that every child is born with ideas worth sharing. Some express it through speech, others through writing — but what they all need is the right environment to grow.

This is why PlanetSpark’s learning model blends:

• Creative Writing – to enhance imagination and vocabulary.

• Public Speaking – to build stage confidence.

• Critical Thinking – to strengthen logic and clarity of thought.

• Personality Development – to nurture empathy and self-awareness.

Children like Anas thrive in such an environment because they’re not forced to fit into a mould — they’re encouraged to shine in their own way.

💬 What Parents Say

Anas’s parents were overjoyed to see their son’s progress. They admitted that at first, they didn’t expect him to write a whole story, let alone publish one.

But as they watched him evolve through PlanetSpark sessions — from hesitant speaker to confident storyteller — they realized that the program wasn’t just about English skills. It was about life skills.

His mother once shared, “We joined PlanetSpark to help him express better. We didn’t know it would unlock a whole new side of his personality.”

🌟 The Bigger Picture

Anas’s success is more than just an individual achievement — it’s a reflection of what’s possible when education meets creativity.

PlanetSpark’s approach has helped thousands of children like him across India and beyond to:
✅ Overcome stage fear
✅ Develop creative and critical thinking
✅ Improve written and spoken English
✅ Discover joy in self-expression

Each published author, confident speaker, or storytelling champion from PlanetSpark carries a common message — that communication isn’t just a skill; it’s a superpower.

✍️ A Note to Young Learners

If you’re reading this and wondering, “Can I do something like this too?” — the answer is YES.

Anas’s journey proves that age doesn’t define ability. With imagination, curiosity, and the right guidance, even a 7-year-old can become an author.

So, whether your child dreams of writing stories, speaking on stage, or leading conversations — PlanetSpark can help shape that dream into reality.

Because at PlanetSpark, learning is not about textbooks — it’s about transformation.

💫 Final Words

Muhammad Anas Zaman’s story is a celebration of creativity, mentorship, and the magic that happens when children are given the right platform.

From a classroom in Bengaluru to the pages of a published book, his journey reminds us that dreams don’t need to wait for “someday.” Sometimes, “someday” starts in Grade 2.

And that’s what PlanetSpark stands for — turning young voices into inspiring stories.
