Adventures of an Extraordinary Kind: The Great Escape

By Cate Evans

Rebecca is a typical tomboy, she is fearless and believes she understands the world she lives in, even if she isn't always entirely sure where she fits in to it.

Growing up with stories from her Grandpa about fairies that lived at the bottom of his garden. She knew they were a fantasy but she couldn't help hoping that one of these days she would come face to face with a fairy or two.

However when Rebecca gets drawn into the most extraordinary day imaginable, the reality of fairies is the furthest thought from her mind.

Facing challenges which test her bravery and sanity, she wonders if she really is the fearless adventurer she always believed.

Cate Evans spends her days working in Science and her nights, under the careful supervision of Basil, her orange and white cat writing stories. She has been cultivating a vivid imagination since she was five years old, old school reports and crazy artwork can confirm this if you require further proof. She loves photography, painting and blogging. Basil loves standing on her laptop keyboard, (he does not believe having paws limits his ability to type), kneading her hair and cheese.
