The Stories
The stories are simple - solving problems, making
friends and finding out about science and pseudo science. Some of the stories
will be allegories relating to today, others will be extrapolations on
present science that should fuel children's imaginations. The stories will
also contain a few difficult words to challenge the reader.

Printing Instructions
Each page of the book is on a separate page in
your pdf. Simply print the first page in your printer, then turn the paper
over and print the second page. Do this for all 40 pages. The pdf contains
crop marks so it is very easy to cut the pages to the right size with scissors
(though it is better with a guillotine) Staple the pages together and you
have your very own printed ebook!
