Hi All,
I am fairly new here. I wrote a book aimed at kids 10-14 years old. Here is a summary and link to it :-) I can't wait to see what others are doing.
"My father named me Marco after the famous explorer Marco Polo. He wanted me to grow up, explore the world, and have grand adventures. Not me; I just wanted to live a quiet and peaceful life on my island.
But then Grandfather passed away, and Jordie took me to live on another planet…as a pet! I'm serious; aliens keep humans as pets!
I never really thought about aliens, and now here I am, eleven years old and on another planet in a different galaxy. The alien guy I'm living with, Jutte, is pretty cool. Then there's a sea dragon that tries to eat me and another alien that wants to kill me.
It's okay, though; I got this. I am Marco."
