A Strange Encounter
A forsaken telephone is heard ringing in the woods and the fact our main character decides to answer it, leads to the question, 'What happens next?' He's of a rather nonconformist disposition and relates the ensuing adventure in a self-deprecating, conversational manner, weaving into his account many of the topics that people in Britain have to currently deal with. Some may find certain views contentious, especially regarding recent medical matters, while others could well applaud, that at last, their very same feelings are appearing in print. The fact the two main characters are unequivocally described as male and female, rather than theys or personages, should give hint of a little satire ...

My Little Alien Friends
This is a book to help children understand our universe a little more, now I have found that in a child's mind, fact and fiction can be one and the same thing. It's only when we grow up that the fiction fades and the facts become all too real. We must learn not to blind children with science, but to open their eyes so they see for themselves all the wonders it holds. With fiction, we must allow a child's mind to explore for itself all the wonders of freedom of thought. So hopefully, I have combined just enough of both to keep a child interested, while also teaching them a little about our solar system, so that they will want to go on and read more. I believe as an adult, the best thing to hear in life is children laughing and, as a child, the best thing is a good bedtime story. So this book is ideal for mums and dads to read together with their children. And when the child asks for facts, they are there within the story, along with lots of new little alien characters for the children to discover and follow across the universe.
