He asked me to tell him a story so I randomly said: 'have you heard the one about the Moon Stealers?' Only a wild and exciting story would be good enough for my son so during our time in the bathroom we threw loads of ideas at each other and concocted an early form of the story. Later, as I started to write it down so that he could draw some pictures to go with it, I found the ideas grew organically and two years later, the four book series was complete.
