James is from York and wrote his book, The Story of Lucy the Cat, for his young children. His intention was to answer their questions, using the cat as a device for explaining things more easily. You can listen to the first chapter right here.
About the author
I had dyslexia when I was at school so did find things hard at first, but I now feel more confident writing听and hope to get published one day.听
About the story
It's a short story about a cat's adventures and is hopefully to help four to six year olds learn everyday things, but from a cat's point of view.

The story was started about 10 years ago for my daughter, who has a black and white cat.
I just started to think what my daughter at four years old would ask and tried to answer the questions through the story.
I had my story read out at Northfield School when it was open to the disabled kids and they loved it. I read them about four chapters from the book - this one here is only the first.
