Author Bio: Umbreen Asghar received a bachelor's degree in English with honours from The University of North London. She has worked with college students whose first language is not English and collaborated with lecturers to provide assistance to students of varying aptitudes. Currently, she works with primary level children in London, England where she lives. Her daughter, a dear sort of English princess also serves as the author's muse. Princess Zaara and the Enchanted Forest is her first book.         I aimed to capture the imagination of young readers by inventing a fantasy world of giants, elves, fairies, evil spirits, and a magical and alluring forest setting, as fantasy fiction appealed to me as a child.    My objective is to stimulate the creative process in children by this entertaining story, whilst adding to the classical  tradition of story-telling. The educational benefits are increasing listening skills by listening to the story, speaking skills, when describing or explaining events or characters and your personal reaction to the book ,and reading comprehension, by showing understanding of the text.
