My latest book is The Book of Changing Things (and other Oddibosities)

It’s about a boy who dreams, a squirrel who talks, a man who can grow younger as well as older … and that’s not even the weird part!

The book character I would least like to meet is dead as well, fortunately

When I was growing up I wanted to be older

My heroes are very brave
