Books
I’m an author of fiction and non-fiction books for children and adults.
My new children’s adventure story series, The Wild Files, will be published in January 2027 by Happy Yak, with two launch titles: Rainforest Mission and Polar Mission.
My recent non-fiction publications, 100 Ways To Save The Planet and Explore The Elements, focus on connecting young readers with nature through fun and practical activities. Both are also useful resources for individuals, schools, communities and eco clubs.
I’ve also written and edited books and publications on travel for the last 20 years.
My new global adventure series for Quarto’s Happy Yak imprint will be hitting shelves in January 2027, with two launch titles: The Wild Files Rainforest Mission and The Wild Files Polar Mission.
The stories star YOU, one of the world’s top nature detectives, as you take on a top-secret mission for The Wild Files TV series. You’ll need to follow the clues to track down five amazing, elusive animals in different locations around the world, and film some awesome footage of them their glorious natural habitats.
The books are written as interactive reading experiences, with fold-out maps, comic strip adventures, hidden hints, and crucial choices, all beautifully illustrated by Laura Martín.
Available to pre-order now.
100 Ways To Save The Planet (Everything You Need To Know To Become A Green Superhero), with illustrator Joshua Rice, is an uplifting, practical and creative source of inspiration for young readers to engage with, enjoy and protect our wonderful natural world.
Published by Button Books, and on sale in bookshops and online and in the UK and USA.
“An invaluable handbook for any family, primary or even secondary classroom: think of all the environmental superheroes it could inspire. ”
“A great book for little ones feeling overwhelmed with where to start when it comes to helping the Earth.”
Explore The Elements, also with Joshua Rice, was produced in partnership with National Parks UK and Explorer HQ. The book contains a series of eco-missions that kids and families can do in their own neighbourhoods AND the UK’s wonderfully wild National Parks.
“Such a great way for families to
explore our National Parks, and help the environment at the same time.”
My most recent travel title is very close to home – the current Rough Guide: The Peak District, the National Park that’s right on my doorstep. Co-authored with Tim Binks.
