作者簡介：

Meet the Author

Hello Robert. This is your second story for Helbling Readers.

That’s right. The first story was called Nest Door. It was about a boy called Eoin and a twin brother and sister who move into the house next door. People thing think come from another planet and Eoin wants to discover the truth.

Is this story very different?

I hope so. This story is about a girl called Jan. Her history teacher gives the class a project to make a time capsule. A time capsule is a container. You put things inside it and then you leave it in a special place for people to find in the future.

What happens?

I can’t tell you! Read the story to find out. I think it’s fantastic when you read a book or watch a film and you don’t know what happens. I had a lot of fun writing this story because it takes place in different times and lots of things happen. I wonder how many readers can predict the ending.

What genre is it?

Both Next Door and The Time Capsule are fantasy stories. They have elements of science of fiction too, but I wanted them to be about real people the reader can identify with.

Have you ever made a time capsule?

No, I haven’t. But I hope one day I’ll fine one. I thing it’s fascinating discovering about people’s lives in the past. I think the lives of ordinary people are often more interesting than the lives of the famous people we read bout in history books.
