The stunning new 10+ story from the bestselling and award-winning author of time travelling with a hamster, for anyone who loved the humour of wall-e, the action of star Wars and the deeply touching emotion of et. A small village in the wilds of northumberland is rocked by the disappearance of twelve-year-old Tammy. Only her twin brother, Ethan, knows she is safe and the extraordinary truth of where she is. It is a secret he must keep, or risk never seeing her again. But that doesn’t mean hes going to give up. Together with his friend Iggy and the mysterious (and very hairy) hellyann, Ethan teams up with a spaceship called Philip, and Suzy the trained chicken, for a nail-biting chase to get his sister back that will take him further than anyone has ever been before.
From the Publisher
Into the Sideways World
The whole world was heading for war when Manny Weaver and I went through a ‘grey hole’ to another world.
Till then, I didn’t believe in magic. Fairies, witches, magic spells, strange lands with talking animals, monsters with three heads and potions to turn you into a giant?
Even when I was very little, I knew all that stuff wasn’t real. Then I encountered Manny, and the strange animal we called a ‘cog’, and the brother who I’d never met because he died before I was born. I rode through a lightning storm on a flying jet ski, and lived in a World Without War.
And so now, if you ask me if I believe in magic? Let’s just say I’m not so sure.
