Hello from planet Earth :)

Space age middle-graders… 

Explore beyond Earth and space with fun, educational Science Fiction novels full of universal mysteries, important secrets, numbers, science and language wonders, weird and wacky aliens you wouldn’t want to bump into in the night, and an ordinary boy named Ilnoblet Elmer (who’s not so ordinary, after all). Join him and the funny characters he meets on his wonderful planetary journeys.

 Let’s explore space

Ecologically-minded teens...

How do animals really feel? Find out in these Environmental Fiction novels, and get to know some lovable wild and zoo animal characters facing habitat loss, deforestation, eroded animal rights, cruelty, indifference, or becoming endangered or extinct. What can they do, or wish they could do, in their interactions with humans? Luckily, there are some humans who care. Do you?

 Let’s go wild


Feeling and thinking. At the back of each novel you’ll find an interactive, factual section.  With info, website links and advice based on the environmental and literacy themes in the novels – or with poems, codes and riddles to solve!

Let’s get reading

Books to Save the World

Kathryn Rose Newey writes quirky, interactive Environmental Fiction, Animal Rights Fiction and Science Fiction novels for ages 9-14 and older young-at-heart readers, eco-warriors and universe explorers.

As an educator as well as an author, she’s keen to expand minds. So besides the story, each novel also contains educational resources for readers to explore.

When she’s not writing, she’s probably in her wildlife-friendly, unruly garden (or wishes she was) with her pet dog, Jessie the Jack Russell, who insists on having her own website.

Contact the author here.
