Trevor’s Treasure<br />
We love an exciting swashbuckling adventure to<br />
encourage the kids to get reading. So we’re delighted<br />
to hear that one of our readers, local grandfather Trevor<br />
Anderson has had his novel, The Time Cave – Spanish<br />
Main, published. The time-slip tale is for children aged 9-13<br />
but we’ve heard it’s been enjoyed by adults too and it was<br />
recently named Book of the Week on the London Mums<br />
website. It’s available in paperback and in Kindle format.<br />
