The Great Game

Kiera’s home life is not happy. One day on her way to school, Kiera sees a tiny ship floating in the gutter. It has on its deck the key that she lost the day before and for the loss of which she has been punished. The ship looks so real… She rescues the ship from a dreadful fate. Later, this time with Jai, she sees the ship again and they sail into the start of some incredible and quite magical experiences in the alternative world of Tisany. Kiera and Jai find that they have been taken to Tisany because they can help solve problems there. Through adventures involving stormy sailing, the Seeing Well, caves and snakes, a visit to a colourful souk in a city of towers, a long donkey ride through mountains, hostile chiefs and cheating travellers, The Great Game is developed and played in a sometimes frightening and dramatic finale. And weaving in and out of the events on Tisany, there are happenings at home too that lead Kiera towards a happier situation.

The Land of Faerie

Do you have a light in your back garden or on your flat balcony? You know, the type which hangs from a bracket on the wall or from a post holding birdfeeders, perhaps. Have you ever looked closely at it when the light is shining? Well, Molly did just that and saw strange creatures moving about inside it.

It turned out they were faeries, from The Land of Faerie: a fantastical world where pixies, faeries, unicorns, and other magical creatures live. We can briefly experience what it is like through our dreams – providing we have enough imagination. But Molly discovered it is possible to see and talk to some of these magical creatures not just in her dreams but also when she was awake: through what the faeries called “gateways” between our world and theirs. Yes, you guessed it, the gateways are usually garden lights.

However, as you will know I am sure, such lights sometimes don’t work – most often because their batteries are run-down. When her light stopped working, Molly discovered that there was more to it than just some run-down batteries.

Desperate to be able to talk again with her friends – Maple Leaf, Iris Flower, and Mayfly – she found herself on a journey of discovery which involved learning more about global warming and global dimming. It also involved the whole of The Land of Faerie trying to solve the problems which such conditions were creating for their gateways to our world.

The Six Macs and the Slime Monster from Loch Ness

Thrusting their arms into the air with clenched fists they shout, "The Six Macs". Scruffy MacTuffy had no ideas that his nightmare was about to almost come true. Meeting for a fishing trip could have been a bad idea after their biggest catch got away, but what was it that got away? The Six Macs explore the opposite side of the river after a daredevil bridge crossing where they find a long dark cave leading to a journey of danger and something a little bit on the scary side. That evening they tell their parents what they saw, but they think their stories are a bit too imaginative. So a second trip is arranged for the following day with their parents coming along. The parents keep joking about the Six Macs' story but they will soon believe every single word they said.

David J Dawkins has been writing stories for his son for many years. It's only recently now he is older that his son suggested that he should get them published.
