Hi, and welcome to my website.
My latest project, Disaster Dad, is a bestseller in Ireland! Chicken Chaos is the first in the four-book series for readers aged 7+ that I’m writing with Irish rugby legend and TV star Donncha O’Callaghan. It’s a laugh-out-loud family story full of disastrous D-I-Y, bonkers baking, and some ear-piercing chickens! The book reached number two in the Irish children’s bestselling charts. It’ll be released in the UK in April 2025.
The first Major and Mynah adventure is a Blue Peter Book Club read and it featured on the BBC TV children’s show in the summer. Four lucky readers got to fly in a helicopter on their quest to solve some tricky clues and find the treasure. You can see their fantastic animation and check out the BBC Bitesize guide to the book here.
Tarantula Terror is out now! It’s the third title in my Major and Mynah series and it features a very hair, rather large Brazilian Salmon Pink spider called Peaches. When she escapes from a wildlife park, SPUD – the Super Perceptive Undercover Detectives – must find her before she dies from the cold.
It’s published by Firefly Press, illustrated by Louise Forshaw, and perfect for readers age 6+. Buy the book here or at a bookshop near you.
I was invited by the Book Trust to write a piece for their blog about why it was so important to me to create a character with hearing loss, which you can read here.
Happy reading,
