Now, 100 years after the blood of the last king flowed from the steps of Parliament Square, another rotting empire has the jewel of the Ragged Sea in its sights. It means to bring them into its fold, to swallow up the fledgling republic before the fires of its industries can sweep across the world.

My books were born out of my love of children and my hope to guide them through important learning experiences. I was looking for a new and creative way to show the children how they could use their imaginations and express their feelings. I showed them how, with a few pictures of their beloved pets, they could create a fun adventure. I found that the children loved my story, and they then started to create some stories of their own.
