About this ebook
The trouble with ghosts is that you never really know where they have come from or what they are doing in that particular place at that particular time. You dont know why they have decided to appear and frighten you to death, either. Well, I have got news for you. If you did see one of these blue people, it wouldnt be personal. It would be because their fade-out pill was not working properly. This is more common with child-size ghosts who have probably spit half of theirs out and not told their parents.
Of course, they are not really ghosts; these fading in and out, giggling, happy-looking people. They are Skeignans, and Samantha and I decided to write about them one sunny afternoon whilst on holiday in Delphi. This is a beautiful sunny, ancient place in the mountains of Greece. In fact, the type of place Skeignans flock to when on holiday. We had seen one that morning, and that was what set us off.
Samantha wasnt at all shocked when we saw the Skeignan because she remembered that she had played with one called Michael when she was a child. It seems that he had got left behind when his family had gone home from a trip to see our local beauty spot in the northern Pennine hills of England. They had played often through the summer of 1992, and then one day he was gone. His parents had made it back for him. All Sam had left was a good-bye note, which she treasures until this day.
If I have caught your interest, do feel free to read on, and I will explain more about the Skeignans. The story is not about Michael, by the way. It is based upon a family called Grock who lived just down the road from him back on his own planet. If you want to read more about Michael, you are out of luck because I dont think anyone else has written about him either.

Kathleen James- Carroll lives in the East Riding of England, UK. She and Vic have been married for forty years and have two adult children, Nick and Samantha. They have been presented with several delightful grandchildren, and it is the family inspired this book, which is the third that Kath has produced. When at school, Kath was an avid writer of rather comical stories. She once based one of her essays on the fictional romance and subsequent murder of two of her teachers. As so often happens in life, events took over as the years went by and career and family life took over. Trained as a mental health nurse in the 1970s, Kath went on to train as a general nurse and then eventually became a health visitor. During her twelve years helping and advising the parents of small children, Kath wrote several pamphlets and lighthearted advice booklets to support her work with families. In 1996, her book on the depressed mother was published and sold well for several years. From Skeigh and Back . . . . . . . . with Love was conceived by Kath and her daughter, Samanatha, whilst sitting on a hotel veranda in their beloved Delphi. They thought that it would be fun to produce a children’s book that would explain more about the beautiful world we live in and encourage them to learn more. Work began on their return from holiday, and they hope that the result is an entertaining and informing book for the young and young at heart.
