'Welcome to I Met a Martian and Other Stories, written by the best of Australia's grown-up writers, as well as some very talented new ones who have been unearthed by the clever people at the Sydney Story Factory.

'This fantastic collection of short stories features writers such as Emily Maguire, Sophie Masson, William McInnes, Markus Zusak, Jacquiline Harvey, R. A. Spratt, and many, many more.

'It will keep you up late at night and make you dream green. And all proceeds go towards the Story Factory, whose mission is to unlock the imagination of every young child in Australia, so that each one of them can write this well.'
