Peter Lynas is a manager, husband and proud father of two who lives in Hesketh Bank in Lancashire in England. Madeleine Goes to the Moon is his first published book.Peter showed an early interest in books, learning to read before starting school and losing himself in the fantastic worlds of Dr. Seuss and Richard Scarry.Although he loved writing stories and poems as a child, it took many years in the wilderness until he found his true vocation. In the meantime Peter continued to write short poems and make up stories for his friends and family but it was having children that made him realise his true audience and decide to dedicate his time to writing. He wrote a poem for the christening of his first child, and as he familiarised himself with children's books, found a desire to create something he couldn't find in the shops. The result is his first published book, Madeleine Goes to the Moon.
