About Dymocks
The origin of the Dymocks flagship store on George Street, Sydney – Australia’s greatest bookstore – goes back to 1879 when young William Dymock commenced business as a bookseller in nearby Market Street. In 1922, the Dymock family purchased the site of the old Royal Hotel in George Street upon which was built the historic, Art Deco landmark Dymocks building, completed in 1930.

Ramone's ABCs on Mars
Just in time for summer reading, I have released my third Rocket Team book featuring Ramone and his robot pal, Pip.
Ramone is a young astronaut that roams the solar system as part of the international Rocket Team. Rocket Team astronauts need lots of training, and this ABC book is a good start for future Mars explorers. At the end of this book, you’ll find some activities to get you ready for more astronaut training.
Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1097465357
Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07S6CB48K
Unlike the rhyming, sing-song structure of the first two books, this is a narrative ABCs book suitable for grades 1-4.
Also, I'd like to acknowledge Andy Weir, author of The Martian. You may remember they made his book into a movie starring Matt Damon. Andy helped me kick around some ideas for some of the more difficult letters.

Your Free Poem: Flint
Flint
Those million patient raindrops
at last unearthed a broken flint
crafted with skill and care
by an ancient hunter's hands.
It hangs on my neck now,
imperfect and magnificent.
A reminder of things broken,
a reminder of eternity.
From my book "We May Learn" available from these fine outlets...
