Kids will love these two stories. They are written so that a child will understand the stories. Wonderful.

This is brilliant, enchanting, and a dlightful read. Great, colourful characters, which held me spell bound. Backed. Eunice - The Temple Dancer.

Dear Paul, I love that Bob the robot liked chocolate & that the firemen painted him red to be a fireman. :) Your pitch was concise, so I'd know the plot of your story & your nice crisp dialogue & paragraphs moved me right through. :) Hope you'll write a lot of book. :) I've backed your book :) - could you please take just a moment to back my memoirs book? :) Thanks so very much. :) Love, Susie :)

You have written a very interesting and unique storyline, which I do like, and created a most memorable main character in Bob. The dialogue is realistic and well written and the pace of your story flows well. All of this along with your descriptive writing ensures that your work will appeal to the childrens audience.

hi mate, i see you've still not managed the friends thing. going to give you a bit of constructive criticism in the hope that you will return the favour. liked the pitch but then c1 starts with Jim who's not mentioned in the pitch? you've certainly got a vivid imagination but it could be short and snappier, especially if aimed at kids. the first paragraph is a bit long. perhaps. as the letter from uncle james landed on the doormat, Jim didn't know his life was going to take a most interesting turn. just a thought. watchlisted you hope you get chance to read my book, nathan green and the hunt for mr big. cheers tim

This is a great piece of fantasy from a truly versatlie writer. A story that would appeal to all age groups that keeps the reader gripped, constantly wondering what's through the next door? This is an author with stories to tell, coupled with a wonderfully colourful imagination and a gift for bringing it all to life on paper in the most entertaining ways possible. Fantastic!

you are inspiring!

Very interesting read, amazing imagination, keep up the good work, when is the sequel?

Inspirational Stuff. Fantasy story telling for all ages. My 11 year old daughter and 7 year old son are hard to please and finding a story that captured both their imaginations enabled me to actually read the entire story without either loosing interest. To write a book that appeals to both boys and girls of all ages is no mean feat. Superbly written with great imagination. This story was so good I even read it again without the kids. More Please. Awaiting the Hollywood Blockbuster.

fun read - what is behind the blue door? A sequel maybe?

What a wonderful read just let's your imagination run riot. Would like and Uncle James myself! Great writing, fun for both adults and children alike. I have an avid 9 year old reader and she just loved it. Could even turn into series with Uncle James and friends.

What a wonderful imagination you have. Well done. I admire anyone who can invent such things..it is not easy to do. I think this was clever..a mix of Charlie and the Chocolate factory meets Alice in Wonderland (doors and strange happenings etc). What age is it for? If its for younger kids..maybe shorter chapters. Did this with mine a few weeks back as I had comments that 7 to 9 needed shorter sentences etc... Anyway. I will read more but shelving you because I like it!

hi..i received one ..will try and read over next couple of days! Think you sent one to yourself..Ive done that too! haha

This story was fairly interesting. There are a few grammatical errors in it though. You might want to proofread it one more time.
