EAST BRUNSWICK, N.J., Oct. 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — In a heartwarming initiative to mark World Stroke Day, Dr. Rajiv Narula, the innovative founder and CEO of Sevaro Health, and his creative 5-year-old son, Ayan Narula, are thrilled to reveal the launch of their transformative children’s book, B.E.F.A.S.T., Be A Superhero.
This inspiring book is crafted to engage young readers while teaching them how to identify the critical signs and symptoms of a stroke through the BEFAST method, which stands for Balance, Eyes, Face, Arms, Speech, and Time. With a heartfelt mission to empower children, the dynamic father-son team aspires to cultivate awareness and skills that could potentially save lives during a stroke emergency.
The BEFAST method serves as a straightforward yet effective tool for detecting stroke symptoms, which can accelerate timely medical intervention and improve recovery outcomes. Dr. Narula emphasized the importance of this knowledge: “Teaching children to recognize the signs of a stroke can truly be the difference between life and death. Our book helps them become real-life superheroes, equipped with the knowledge to help a loved one in need.”
Ayan shares his own enthusiasm, explaining, “I like superheroes, and my dad told me that we can be superheroes by helping people. I wanted to write a book so kids like me can help their families.”
Dr. Narula is unwavering in his commitment to creating a widespread impact with the book and is generously offering free copies to mission-driven organizations, including schools, that believe B.E.F.A.S.T., Be A Superhero could significantly benefit their communities. “We want to ensure that every child has the opportunity to learn these life-saving skills, no matter their background,” he stated thoughtfully.
The book’s official launch coincides with World Stroke Day on October 29, 2024, and it will be readily available for purchase on Amazon. For additional details or to request complimentary copies for your organization, please reach out to BEFASTBeAHero@gmail.com
Ayan Narula is not just an excited 5-year-old; he has proudly co-authored the book with his father and is eager to educate other children about how they can become heroes by recognizing the signs of a stroke.

B.E.F.A.S.T. Be A Superhero: The Power of Education
Well, folks, it seems like in the battle against strokes, the real superheroes aren’t wearing capes but are instead wielding crayons! That’s right, on World Stroke Day 2024, Dr. Rajiv Narula teamed up with his pint-sized partner in crime—his 5-year-old son, Ayan—to release their new children’s book, B.E.F.A.S.T., Be A Superhero. Now, if that isn’t adorable enough to warm your cold, cynical heart, I don’t know what will!
This isn’t your average storybook filled with magical fairies or mystical dragons, no! Dr. Narula’s mission is seriously superheroic; he’s teaching kids how to spot the signs of a stroke using the friendly acronym B.E.F.A.S.T.—that stands for Balance, Eyes, Face, Arms, Speech, and Time—like an Avengers initiative, but with fewer capes and more educational content.
“Teaching children to recognize the signs of a stroke can truly be the difference between life and death,” Dr. Narula boldly proclaimed. Ayan, ever the enthusiastic five-year-old, chimed in: “I wanted to write a book so kids like me can help their families!” It seems that even at five, Ayan is already endorsing a future based on empathy and superhero potential. Did you hear that? At five, I was just trying to keep my Lego tower from crumbling, not saving lives! Someone get this kid a cape—he’s ready!
The BEFAST method is an easy, fail-safe way of ensuring timely treatment, kind of like calling an Uber before you’ve had too many pints—because waiting for help while twiddling your thumbs isn’t a superhero move! Dr. Narula is offering free copies to mission-based organizations; that includes schools. I mean, can we take a moment to applaud this? This isn’t just another run-of-the-mill children’s book; this is revolutionizing the way young minds think about health emergencies. Who needs Batman when you’ve got Anton the Ayan?
Now, let’s break it down. When kids learn about recognizing strokes, they really have two options: either become the hero who saves a life or stand there heroically doing absolutely nothing. And if we’re honest, sometimes doing nothing is only heroic in a Hollywood blockbuster. So let’s equip the next generation with some real-life superhero skills!
The book, launching officially on October 29, 2024, will be available for purchase on Amazon. Keep your eyes peeled, folks, because if you’re not careful, you might find yourself in a bidding war over this hot new title. Because, let’s face it, who wouldn’t want a book co-written by a five-year-old? It’s the literary equivalent of a double rainbow!
If your organization is interested in grabbing some free copies for educational purposes, pop an email to BEFASTBeAHero@gmail.com. Don’t play hard to get like you’re on an awkward first date; reach out and get those kids learning vital skills that could make them the heroes of their own stories!
This book doesn’t just teach. It empowers, it educates, and it might just prevent your child from doing what kids do best—spilling juice on the carpet and pretending not to notice when grandma starts to droop! Get your kids involved, folks, because even if they’re not wearing a cape, they can certainly fast-track their way to being everyday heroes.
So here’s to Ayan, Dr. Narula, and all the little kids out there who might just save the day. Now, let’s go teach these kids the signs of a stroke—and maybe throw in a lesson on how to clean up after playing with Legos while we’re at it!
