Book Reviewing – At A Very Young Age

Tristan, aged 7, has his own Facebook page set up and on it he reviews a variety of books. One of them was my Clever Dad and the Space Rocket. He and his brother enjoyed colouring in the illustrations and when he gets time he will review my other stories. Please like his Facebook page as he is a wonderful example of  children should be at that age. Get the children reading more and watching less.

Apart from the above mentioned stories I have three other stories out there. They are:

Clever Dad and the Pirate Ship

Brown Bear’s Big Day Out

Each sale will generate a donation to a good cause. At the moment I am supporting Plantlife and Butterfly Conservation in the UK but am trying to find others to link up with.

Book Review – Clever Dad and the Space Rocket by Tristan Aged Seven

I don’t remember how I got to know about Tristan apart from that it was through Facebook. It just so happens that the idea for my character Tristan in my Clever Dad series of books is based on a Tristan that we knew back in December 1999. He must now be in his 20s. This Tristan likes the coincidence that the story’s main character has the same name. Please like his page as he deserves encouraging.

Clever Dad and the Pirate Ship

This story can be purchased for the Kindle and devices that run the Kindle app from Amazon and they also sell an A4 Print on Demand story and coloring in book. We sell it as a pdf on our website, www.junagarhmedia.co.uk, for PCs, Mac and tablets that have a pdf reader. We have now got copies of the A4 story book as well.

Clever Dad builds a pirate ship, so that his son Tristan can sail the seven seas on the promise that he will be a good pirate. Tristan is captivated once the ship is complete and his father starts to tell him a story but he, using his imagination drifts off in his own tale of the high seas.

Once sailing along he meets different characters, the first of which is the Easterly wind that suggests he goes to Polysneezia, a pleasant island that the wind will help him reach.

He lets the wind take him in the direction of the island and he relaxes until he meets a group of flying fish who tell him not to go there because of pirates digging for treasure. He is told that they are digging so many holes that the island might sink. Horrified, he asks the advice of the Easterly wind and decides that he must try to help even though he has been warned by the flying fishes.

Tristan encounters other characters on his way to Polysneezia that give him their opinion on whether to continue or not. Knowing that the island is in trouble he presses on determined to help. Will Tristan be able to save the island from the dastardly pirates.

The suggested age range is 4-8 years. For younger readers the books are meant to have a parent, family member or guardian read to them.

My First Official Book Reviewer – Tristan

My books will be reviewed by my first official reviewer. His name is Tristan and he is only six years old but is already fluent in both English and French. Over twenty years of practice and I still cannot understand French properly or speak it for that matter. The coincidence in this story is that two of my books, Clever Dad and the Pirate Ship and Clever Dad and the Space Rocket feature a boy called Tristan. I hope that the real Tristan likes them.

You can find all my stories on Amazon or on our website, www.junagarhmedia.co.uk.

Clever Dad and the Space Rocket

This is a story I wrote and published in 2018 for children between 4 and 8 years old. It is available on the Kindle and devices that run the Kindle app. It is also available as an A4 story and colouring in Print on Demand book from Amazon. In the Print on Demand version and also the pdf available from  Junagarh Media  for PCs/MACs and tablets that can read pdf files all the illustrations are repeated at the end of the book for colouring in.

This is the synopsis:

Read all about how Clever Dad builds his son Tristan a rocket that he soon finds himself blasting off in, on a journey to the moon. His adventure is aided by the ship’s computer who teaches Tristan some facts about space travel and informs him of the mission to survey the moon for possible landing sites.

They discuss whether the moon is made of cheese because back home there is a cheese shortage as some of the cows seem to have gone missing. On the way to the moon they overtake a cow and find out why, as in the old nursery rhyme, it decided to jump over the moon.

The cow was not alone and Tristan and the rocket’s computer discover that none of the cows that decide to jump ever come back. Tristan decides with the help of the computer to find out why the cows are mysteriously disappearing.
