Book 2

This New Life

by Sheila Jacobs

Published 20 July 2001

This New Life, like Sheila's other book, is humorous whilst dealing with serious subjects such as not judging others, and the difficulties involved in standing up for what you believe when the people around you don't think the same way - which isn't easy, especially for young people. The book may also appeal to anyone who has been the "new kid" in school.


Aliens and Strangers

by Sheila Jacobs

Published 1 February 1997

In this book we meet Jane for the first time. She hates school and doesn't have many friends.

The one thing she enjoys is writing science fiction. But are Jane's stories just fiction? Or have aliens really landed on earth? Is their mission to break up families - will Jane's family be next?

Jane discovers there's only one person she can turn to, but will he help her?

From the book:

"I'd been waiting for this moment; waiting, hoping, watching. Now it was happening right before my eyes - and I was terrified."
