Astrosaurs is a popular series of children's books written by Steve Cole. The series follows the adventures of a group of space-faring dinosaurs who work as the law enforcement team of the galaxy, keeping the peace and fighting evil. The books are aimed at children aged 7-11 and are a fun and engaging way for young readers to learn about science and space exploration. The series currently consists of 22 books, each of which tells a standalone story set in the Astrosaurs universe. The first book in the series, Riddle of the Raptors, was published in 2005, and since then, the series has gone on to become a firm favourite with children and parents alike. The books are filled with exciting adventures, high-stakes action, and plenty of humour, making them a perfect choice for young readers who enjoy science fiction and fantasy. The series is set in a distant future, where dinosaurs have evolved to become intelligent and have mastered space travel. The heroes of the series are a group of astrosaurs, led by Captain Teggs Stegosaur, who works for the Dinosaur Space Service (DSS), an organization responsible for keeping the peace in the galaxy. The astrosaurs travel through space in their spaceship, the Sauropod, battling evil and protecting the innocent. Each book in the series is a self-contained adventure, with the astrosaurs facing a new threat in each instalment. The threats they face range from rogue asteroids to evil alien races, and the astrosaurs use their unique skills and abilities to overcome each challenge. Captain Teggs is a skilled strategist and tactician, while his crew includes characters like Arx Orano, the sauropod engineer, and Gipsy Saurine, the team's tough-as-nails pilot. One of the things that set the Astrosaurs series apart from other children's books is the way it incorporates real science and space exploration into the stories. The author, Steve Cole, is a former editor of the BBC's science fiction magazine and has a background in science writing. This expertise is evident throughout the books, which are filled with fascinating details about space travel, astrophysics, and biology. Despite the scientific accuracy of the books, they are also incredibly fun and engaging. The characters are all unique and memorable, and each book is filled with exciting action and adventure. The humour in the series is also a big draw for young readers, with jokes and puns that will have children laughing out loud. The Astrosaurs series has been praised for its ability to inspire a love of science and space exploration in young readers. By presenting real scientific concepts in a fun and accessible way, the books encourage children to think about the world around them and develop an interest in science and technology. The series has also been praised for its positive messages about teamwork, perseverance, and the importance of standing up for what is right. In addition to the 22 books in the series, there are also several spin-off titles,...

Titles in this set: The Authenticity Project The People on Platform 5 Description: The Authenticity Project Six strangers with one thing in common: their lives aren't always what they make them out to be. What would happen if they told the truth instead? Julian Jessop is tired of hiding the deep loneliness he feels. So he begins The Authenticity Project - a small green notebook containing the truth about his life. Leaving the notebook on a table in his friendly neighbourhood café, Julian never expects Monica, the owner, to track him down after finding it. Or that she'll be inspired to write down her own story. Little do they realise that such small acts of honesty hold the power to impact all those who discover the notebook and change their lives completely. The People on Platform 5 Every day at 8:05, Iona Iverson boards the train to go to work. As a seasoned commuter, she knows there are rules that everyone should follow: · You must have a job to go to · Don't consume hot food · Always pack for any eventuality · You must never speak to strangers on the train Iona sees the same group of people each day - ones she makes assumptions about, gives nicknames to, but never ever talks to. But then, one morning, Smart-but-Sexist-Surbiton chokes on a grape right in front of Iona. Suspiciously-Nice-New Malden steps up to help and saves his life, and this one event sparks a chain reaction. With nothing in common but their commute, an eclectic group of people learn that their assumptions about each other don't match reality.
