Edventures of a Seven Year Old by Edward Gregg
These 'Edventures' were written by seven-year-old Edward ('Eddie') John Gregg in creative writing at junior school. Edward loved books and had a very vivid imagination, as you will see. The stories range from the simple observation of two fox cubs in a field, 'with fur like a ginger biscuit', to space travel and escaping from 'the Valley of Doom'. The illustrations are by Edward's Uncle John (Gregg) from his home in Picton, Prince Edward County, Canada. These add life to the amazing 'Edventures'. Very sadly, after a short illness, Edward lost his battle with leukaemia. He was 24. All proceeds from the book will go to the charity Blood Cancer UK.
Edward ('Eddie') John Gregg was seven years of age when he wrote these stories in creative writing lessons at junior school. He was a fun-loving, blonde, blue-eyed boy and devoted brother to his younger sister, Amy. Throughout his young life, Edward loved his sport and went on to play football and cricket at local, county and regional levels. In 1997, he graduated with a Sports Science degree from Loughborough University. After completing his PGCE in 1998, he began his teaching career at The Ridings High School in Bristol. At twenty-four years old he was diagnosed with leukaemia. After four months of treatment he lost his battle with the disease. Edward's creative writing exercise books were found twenty years later and his family felt that you would like to share in his 'Edventures'. All proceeds from the book will go to the charity Blood Cancer UK.
