AVAILABLE 1st June 2026 onwards

Aimed at children (8-14 years of age) but for anyone young at heart who enjoys tales of daring-do – and, importantly, wishes to be inspired and motivated. Here are my top tales of adventure – times when I’ve been ‘up against it’ but have pulled through.

We often hear talk of an Anxious Generation – that children today are fearful of taking on challenges, or simply in need (like ALL of us from time to time) encouragement, when things aren’t going well.

Here then, is the answer! Stuffed full of survival tips and humorous doodles, it’s a book that I hope will appeal to, and excite, every generation!
