Hello! I am a British author and illustrator of adventure books for children. The Dinotek Adventures is my first series for young readers - I was inspired to write it after telling a story to my children during a long holiday walk. At the time they were very in to dinosaurs and museums! I am also writing a series of Ebooks for very young children which feature the same antique metallic dinosaur creatures (The Amazing Dinoteks). I live in London with my children and wife. Last summer I toured some schools in Los Angeles - my first visit to California! It was great to meet some US children and teachers. In the UK I do lots of school visits and enjoy them very much. My latest book is an historical adventure set in the Anglo-Saxon era, sometimes called the "Dark Ages". It's an exciting period in history. Do drop by Facebook for a chat - https://www.facebook.com/NSBlackman - I also post "bonus" material for the Dinoteks series there. The series also has its own website - wwww.dinoteks.com
