Intrepidly sailing with Captain Peter across the English Channel, the author Kevin Watts, in his younger days, and his friend Simon landed on a small island. Together they set out to discover this truly intriguing oasis with palm trees and tropical breezes. The stories in The Adventures of Tug Boat Ben series, originally written to be read to his own children, were inspired by this mystical island, shrouded in fog and sun, called Alderney. As a former ghost writer, this series is the first published under the authors own name. Readings for schools and libraries are currently based from both the published and up-coming titles.
