Shelagh's first children's book Mr.
Planemaker's Flying Machine was published in 2005.
The story is about two ordinary children, Dell and Emmelisa
Planemaker, who lead uneventful lives in a small town in Lancashire
until they discover a unique computer that takes them on an extraordinary
journey. They are guided by a strange looking man from a far-off distant
planet who helps them to undergo a tough space mission: to follow their
father's TRAIL OF LIGHT.

The story, set in Scotland, is about a woman in her early forties, who writes a letter to a national newspaper in response to features written by a freelance journalist employed by the newspaper. The journalist has quite a reputation as the newspaper's theatre and film critic.
Despite the fact that the newspaper does not print the letter, the journalist seeks out the woman who wrote it and follows her around. The novel is very tongue-in-cheek and full of humour and is now available on Lulu.com:

Carpet to my first published novel.
