Author Bio
Simon Cheshire worked in the book trade for many years, first for Books for Students, then Heathcote Books. It was only after turning thirty that he realized my mental age would never exceed ten and that, in children's books, I had finally found my natural habitat . He is the author of Jeremy Brown of the Secret Service, Jeremy Brown and the Mummy's Curse, Jeremy Brown on Mars and They Melted His Brain. His stories, he claims, are based entirely upon actual events. Only names, characters, plots, dialogue and descriptive content have been changed, to make them more believable.
