Jakeman's Marvellous Mechanimals and the Space Pirates

by Nick Ward

Overview

Will Jakeman is the inventor of the world-famous Marvellous Mechanimals – brilliant mechanical animals that defend people from all the dangerous creatures that inhabited their home. At the ripe old age of 99 and three quarters, Will decides he must try to discover the whereabouts of Ureker, the lost planet of his birth invaded by Reptoids, a gang of merciless Space Pirates, when he was still a little baby. Will builds a giant telescope that can see far out into the cosmos - but what he doesn't realise is that his fiddling with the fabric of the cosmos causes a massive space-quake, and a ten-year-old boy called Charlie Small is catapulted through the hole and lands near Will’s factory of inventions. The two embark on a series of adventures trying to get Charlie home - will they succeed or will they be left dangling in space forever?

About the Author

Nick Ward was born in the late Jurassic period, and since then has written over sixty books for children, from picture books to young fiction. His book "Don't Eat The Teacher" has sold over a million copies and his alter-ego Charlie Small has written twelve volumes of unbelievable but completely true adventurous memoirs.

Brought up living above the family shop in a quiet market town, all Nick Ward ever wanted to do was write and illustrate books, and by hook and by crook, that's exactly what he has ended up doing. He has worked in design studios and converted school buildings, but now works from a little wooden studio (shed) at the bottom of his leafy garden. It's all rather lovely.
