In June 2016 I was thrilled to visit St Alphege School in Solihull. The visit was arranged via the Federation of Children’s Book Groups in conjunction with my publisher, Troika Books.

I had a lovely chat with the children, followed by a book signing.
Since the visit, I have been sent loads of alien art which you can see at my Kid’s Gallery. Here are a selection of pictures

The event was even covered by the Solihull Observer. So lovely to see the children starring in the local press.
