Ben is staying with Grandad. Grandad may be a senior citizen and drive everywhere very, very slowly, but that doesn't mean he's dull. Far from it! There's great excitement when he has a go on on Ben's scooter before he finds out where the brake is, with dramatic results. He takes Ben to the seaside where they get soaking wet and nearly get into trouble at the amusement arcade. But Grandad comes to the rescue of the Firework Night party for the Cub Scouts and Brownies after vandals seem to have spoiled everything. Grandad turns out to be very good with fireworks! I'm an English ex-pat living in France with my family and a lot of animals, including llamas and carp. I was a bestselling author in Ireland, where we lived for 15 years before we moved to our new home here. I've recently relaunched my writing career, but this time as an indie ebook author and publisher. It's the twenty-first century after all!
