Imaginations unleashed...

Hi, I’m Nate, the author of the books over there to the left. I write stories that children can read all by themselves, but I want them to be just as much fun for the parents and grandparents reading alongside. Each one is packed with surprises and unexpected heroes, and brought to life by some wonderfully talented illustrators. I hope you enjoy them.

Illustrated stories for ages 4 to 100

Meet the author

I read recently that common estimates suggest there are over 2 billion active websites out there in this complex web of the wide world, so it means a great deal to me that you have even visited my humble one.

It offers a literary micro-menagerie of my books, aimed at a range of ages, all of which I hope will offer at worst, a smattering of fun, enjoyment and satisfaction, and at best, a wholly positive and life changing experience. If nothing else, I hope you will feel that your time here has not been wasted.

And if you do have the inclination to buy one of the books, then seriously, thank you from the very bottom of my heart. Oh, and please do let me know what you think, if what you think is kind, or flattering, or both. I would love to hear from you.

Rules for young readers...

  1. Your imaginations must be unleashed at all times.

  2. Your parents and grandparents must adopt appropriate voices for each character when reading, especially at bedtime. Voices must not sound similar to other characters, or their own 'normal' voice.

  3. Your parents and grandparents must not, at any time, look at the clock. Bedtime reading closes only when your eyes do.

  4. The number of hugs you give your parents or grandparents correlate directly to how much effort they make when reading - extra hugs awarded for extravagant voices, hand gestures, and/or standing up and acting out the story.

  5. Your parents and grandparents are tired. In the event their eyes close before yours do, gently lay a warm blanket over them, give them a gentle kiss on the cheek, and go to bed. Sleep well.
