EDITOR’S NOTE
Each and every one of the stories in this collection is true. Or at least that’s what the people who wrote them – authors young enough to still be at school – told me.
One of them came to my house one morning and rang my doorbell. I was working in my office, waiting for an important letter, so I opened the door. My visitor gave me a manuscript. You have to read our adventures, sir, he told me.
He put his parcel in my hands, went back to the pavement without giving me time to react, and before I knew it, he had run away.
Two weeks later, I looked at one of the pages of the manuscript in question without much conviction. I had fifty other ones to read, you see. Intrigued by what was written, I started over from the start.
The very next day I called the young man on the cell phone number he had given me. Getting him and his friends to sign a publishing contract was quicker and simpler than I’d thought.
These tales are therefore presented as authentic. Will you be convinced? I can only hope so.
What is certain is that if you are like me, these adventures will grab you, only letting you go a very, very long time after you have read the last line.
