100 Most Dangerous Things on the Planet (A&C Black) has been shortlisted for the 2009 Blue Peter Book Awards - in the category “Best Book with Facts”. This is one of the few well-known children’s book awards to feature non-fiction - three cheers for them. The winners are announced in March 2009. Of course, I haven’t got round to listing my books properly on my site yet, but you can check out the book at amazon.co.uk - or even better at amazon.com, where there’s a great review too.
Welcome to my new website! I have abandoned my old HTMLing ways as too time-consuming, and gone the way of WordPress. It will take some time to set up all the new pages, including listing all my books, as I hadn’t updated the old site for some time. For now, only some of the pages have content, but I hope to complete the site over the next few months. Meanwhile, please email me if you want to discuss new projects or have any questions.
