The man who runs for the world is the Arabic edition of an augmented reality story inspired by Ahmet H. Uysal, an athlete who runs marathons around the world to support children’s charities.
This Arabic children’s book traces the journey of ultra-athlete Ahmet H. Uysal who ran seven marathons in seven days across seven continents. Conceived as a hybrid reading experience between the page and the Internet, the publication is an interactive retelling of and narrative about Uysal’s experience traversing the world. By downloading an app, audiences can follow up on the story in animation through augmented reality. The book thus brings together the worlds of publishing, art, media and technology as an experimental format for children’s education.

The book was originally published in Turkish by Süreyyya Evren and Halil Altindere, and it was also translated into English. This Arabic version was translated by Mehmet Hakkı Suçin.
