An Alien in the Jam Factory: Illustrated, funny adventure series about a young inventor with cerebral palsy and his secret alien sidekick, for ages 7, 8, 9 (An Alien in the Jam Factory, 1)

The first book in a hilarious, jam-packed new adventure series starring Scooter the inventor and his top secret alien sidekick. Scooter McLay’s cerebral palsy affects how quickly he can move his body, but his hyper-creative brain is a constant fizz of brilliant ideas. He spends every day inventing top secret recipes and machines for his family’s jam factory. There’s just one thing missing ... a pet, to share it all with. Or better still, a friend. When a tiny alien named Fizzbee crashes through the factory window, she might just be the answer. Now it’s all hands on deck, as they team up to save the factory from dastardly neighbour Daffy Dodgy. "A very sticky romp of an adventure that is full of the unexpected – and a lot of jam!" Julia Eccleshare, LoveReading4Kids
