    Michael Watson

    Paperback (Eloquent Books, March 14, 2010)
    The Birthday Bunch, a group of colourful creatures that look like the numbers 1 to 10, accompany young Nat and Nadia on a variety of exciting adventures—from the driest desert to the vast, blue sea. In Treasure, Trash, and Turtles, author Michael Watson delights young readers with entrancing tales about Nat and Nadia, a brother and sister, and their numerical Birthday Bunch friends. Nat and Nadia love to travel, and their escapades with The Birthday Bunch illustrate their most special qualities: they are impulsive, smart, brave, and resourceful, and they are always seeking adventure. Those traits come in handy when Fortescue the camel takes them to the tomb of the Pharaoh where they must solve riddles to find a treasure, then when Ninetacles the octopus becomes trapped under the sea and exposes its dirty secret, and when Guthree the seagull helps them spot poachers and rescue some innocent and adorable baby turtles. Kids of all ages will be entertained and enthralled as they join Nat and Nadia’s adventures and learn about the world around them Author Michael Watson was inspired by his grandchildren to write this book. Michael is a Quaker and he tries to live his life in ways that bring peace, honesty, fairness and simplicity. He believes that time is running out to save the planet, and that children have great wisdom, bringing messages of hope to help humanity to talk and work together. He made use of designs he produced over 25 years ago as well as more recent paintings. He loves to travel and has incorporated that interest into Treasure, Trash, and Turtles. The author plans to write a series of books about the Birthday Bunch. He has a home in Skipton, Northern England, but now works in Uganda.
