4-Year-Old Signs Book Deal to Publish Poems
A 4-year-old boy from the UK has signed a book deal to publish his collection of poems.

Nadim Shamma-Sourgen was discovered by poet and teacher Kate Clanchy, who won the 2020 Orwell Prize for political writing. Clanchy knew Shamma-Sourgen's mother, who teaches the study of poetry at the University of Reading.

Clanchy began sharing Shamma-Sourgen's poems on Twitter, where they became popular with her followers. Speaking to The Guardian, Clanchy said that she didn't share them because they were like an adult's poems, but because they were so much like a child's way of thinking.

The young poet has now signed a book deal with Walker Books, a children's book company, making him one of the youngest writers to get a book deal.

According to Guinness World Records, Dorothy Straight from the US is the youngest female to publish a book. She wrote a book in 1962 when she was 4 years old. It was published in 1964.

The youngest male writer is Thanuwana Serasinghe from Sri Lanka, who wrote a book when he was 4 years and 9 months old. It was published nine days before his 5th birthday.

In an interview with Sky News, Shamma-Sourgen's mother said that he's still learning to read and write, so he speaks his poems out loud and she writes them down for him.

"I like writing poems especially about nature. I feel happy that my poems will be in a book," Shamma-Sourgen told The Guardian. As well as nature, Shamma-Sourgen's poems talk about things like love, being lonely and bugs in his garden.

The book of poems will be published in summer 2021.

4-Year-Old Signs Book Deal to Publish Poems

In recent years, we have been encouraged to reduce the amount of meat we eat — for health reasons and to help protect the environment.

Red meat, in particular, has been shown to increase the risk of some health problems, while the farming of cows for food has a negative impact on the planet.

And these days, restaurants around the world that have traditionally focused on meat-based meals, including places like McDonald's and KFC, have begun to add more plant-based choices to their menus.

But the question some people are asking is: Can I eat less meat and still be healthy?

According to 2022 research, the answer could be "yes."

Researchers in Italy and Spain compared studies on the health benefits of animal proteins and plant-based or vegetable proteins.

We all need protein in our diets, wherever it comes from.

Plant-based or vegetable proteins include things like chickpeas, beans and nuts, as well as broccoli, kale and tofu.

And the study found that vegetable proteins can reduce the risk of things like heart disease and strokes, compared to animal proteins.

The researchers said that animal and vegetable proteins had similar effects on muscle and bone health.

However, they did find that vegetable or plant-based proteins might not give quite enough vitamin B12, although they were not able to explain why the two proteins have different effects on the body.

The researchers added that the lower environmental impact of plant-based proteins was too important to forget.

The health of the planet, they said, cannot be separated from the health of our bodies.
