prehistoric times. Nobody believes him and everyone
swaps Pitch, his T-Rex puppy, for a little dog. Martin’s
babysitter, exhausted by his insolence, loads him on
a rocket and sends him into space ... here Martin is
confused by the Martians with the “chosen one” that
will have to save them from a galactic battle. Of course,
Martin the rascal doesn’t back down. Too bad he’s not
a real hero ... Martin is also the protagonist of “Jurassik
Diaries”. In this new illustrated novel, he finds himself
experiencing an adventure in pure sci-fi style, obviously
with comedy tones. This saga is narratively independent
from “Jurassik Diaries”.

Two little inventors to the rescue
A new book series by Philip Osbourne
The Story
Sissy is angry with the world, because of a great sorrow
she has endured. With “Kirby”, her magic pencil, she
draws little monsters that become real. Principal Rump
“enlists” her on his team to carry out his evil plans. Pin
and Puk, two mischievous little inventors with a pen-
chant for trouble, will save the middle school and the
world. No one believes they have the skills and means to
fight the monsters, but they will succeed with their in-
ventions and their laughters.

About the idea...
“I decided to create Pin and Puk after my father died of Coronavirus. Of
course, ugly “monsters” have been haunting me at night, until creativi-
ty helped me... and brought a smile back. “Pin and Puk” is a tribute to
invention and to those who seek solutions with a smile. Pin and Puk are
two rascals, they are not geniuses, they do not do well at school and they
are not popular... nobody believes in them. However, they understand
that the funny but spiteful monsters, created by Sissy and the Principal,
can be stopped if they both use their creativity and strength.... They
don’t need anyone else to know... they just need to spark their creativity.
They will create robots by taking washing machines apart... and by sa-
crificing their bicycles. Pin and Puk are happy little creatures... and they
will try to understand why Sissy is always angry instead. You can be hap-
py with just a flower in your hand... that’s the spirit of Pin & Puk”.
