      I can't decide if the author of this book of UFO tales believes or not. Each tale is followed by a set of "fact files" on UFO sightings that bear a relationship to the story. Each one is based on a story that someone has related, although the telling is fictionalised. They're aimed at school boys, and are read in a suitably enthusiastic manner. It was quick, and an interesting mixture of the story and the fact than I can see appealing to that age group.

      Genre: FantasyReview: The author of this story does a great job at creating a meaningful fantasy story. With the characters in the story all animals, it is easy to understand that this is a fantasy. Yet, with the encouragement that the author inputs within the story, it helps create a more meaningful story that the children can follow. Characterization: The protagonist in this story was Franklin. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to remember his lines, however as he became a round character he learned how to overcome his stage fright and did an excellent job at his school play. Media: Not Stated
