...going fifty years the wrong way!
Ten-year-old comedian and astronomer
Aahana (Aaha) Kapoor
has two big problems:
a holiday she doesn't want
and a stepbrother she really didn't ask for.
But when a lost teddy and some hot chocolate send her
FIFTY YEARS INTO THE FUTURE,
she discovers that time travel is no joke, and neither is family.
With the help of a rebellious robot and a suspiciously familiar
Commander, Aaha races to fix the future before time runs out.
School Visits
In 2023, after a hundred terms in education that included three headships, Jonathan Brough retired from teaching.
Since then, he has been working as an educational consultant including question-setting for ISEB English
and on the IAPS Supporting Quality and Compliance team.
Jonathan enjoys visiting schools to deliver talks to pupils in Years 2 to 6, focusing on the writing and publishing process.
He is also happy to discuss the power of reading and the importance of diversity in fiction with parents and staff members.
Up to four talks can be organised each day and Jonathan is happy to discuss rates and arrangements.
