At last - the sequel to Francis The Horse That Is, is here at last: Francis Goes to Europe consists of even more fun and frolic, as Francis is invited to race at Ascot in the UK. Before travelling through Europe with unexpected and uninvited friends who turn up in the most unpredictable manner, and decide to disguise a shipload of cows and sheep to save their lives from a disastrous outcome; especially as they all have to hide from the immigration authorities in each country. Yet, still managing to get into so much trouble and making Arabian horses and other animals unhappy as they travelled. Whilst Fredrick on the other hand causes more problems, when he offers chewing gum to his friends, not knowing the unforgiving outcome and due to his hunger puts his friends at risk in each country. The excitement at the Monte Carlo Horse Races again creates fun and unpredictability. The friends then fall victim to a kidnap and rescued only to fall upon an unbelievable find. Arriving in England forms another story filled with humorous surprises and not so predictable outcomes.
Autorenporträt
Born August 10th 1949, Sonia McNulty was fortunate to have theopportunities bestowed upon her by her parents. As a child,attending ballet school allowed her to become a professionaldancer; attending drama school helped her gain parts in amateurand professional theatre; television and film was always a burningdesire; attending singing classes gave her the qualities necessary toperform in operas.At the same time she followed a career in which her father sawpotential, as he was a brilliant architect and engineer in his timeand so encouraged her in that field. Years later she became anarchitectural and interior designer.This continued from Singapore, to the UK, NZ and Australia.But there was still another yearning, and that was to writechildren's books. Being creative in her past fields gave her theability to write as ideas poured out and characters came to life.Sometimes you do not gain world success in all the things thatyou want. But somehow writing these stories has introduced herpast life experiences on paper, with the ultimate goal of seeing oneof her books turned into a film.Sonia has written five children's books so far. 'Francis TheHorse That Is', is the first to be published although she has severalsequels waiting.Sonia's aim is to bring something unique, healthy, humorousand innocent with educational values for today's and tomorrow'schildren.Through her work she maintains a constant love of all animalswhich builds a strong bond for children to relate to in some way.Children and animals share a joy of innocence which goes hand inhand, demonstrating love in a pure and natural manner. She hopesher books will allow each child to use their imagination and travelside by side with their favourite friend as they witness theirmischievous ways.
