The International Board on Books for Young People (IBBY) is a non-profit organization which represents an international network of people from all over the world who are committed to bringing books and children together.

The book’s unique feature is its storytelling through the perspective of a blind child. The book’s construction incorporates diverse textures, making it appealing to children with visual impairments.

The execution’s delicacy and variety of textures are particularly engaging for children with visual disabilities, Last year, the Children’s Book Council nominated eight Iranian books for the IBBY 2025 list.

The committee consisted of judges Marzieh Shahkarami, Soudeh Karimi, Marjan Reyhanian, Mandana Razavizadeh, Mitra Mo’adab, Fariba Keyhani, and Tahereh Bashir. Masoud Taherian, a member of the council served as an advisor.

IBBY publishes a biennial list of books suitable for children with special needs to promote reading pleasure, encourage publishers, and develop such products. The final selection will be made in Toronto, Canada, and the chosen books will be published in the biennial list of books for children with special needs and showcased at the 2025 Bologna Children’s Book Fair.
