Children's Non-Fiction

In the late '90s, I was lucky enough to be commissioned by MacDonald Young Books to write a series of non-fiction books with my friend and co-author Ivor Baddiel.

The series was aimed at reluctant readers (low word count, high interest) and covered a wide variety of themes popular at the time.

Extraterrestrials

Is the human race the only life form in our universe?
Have aliens visited our planet regularly for centuries?

The Supernatural

Do ghosts exist or are they a product of the imagination?
Is telepathy a sixth sense we all have?

Fantastic Creatures

Do undiscovered monsters lurk in the depths of the ocean?
Were dragons once real creatures?

The Future

After the success of the Mysterious World series, a solo project followed on the subject of Space, which remains an enduring passion of mine to this day!

What would it be like to live on Mars?
