Andrew Steele biography
Andrew Steele has always been enthralled with the world beneath him; and in awe of our galaxy and the universe beyond. As he watches his daughter and sons grow up – and the brilliance in each of them – he often wonders, "What a great adventure it would be for them to explore the galaxy." So Andrew wrote his children a story, and thought it would be great to share the Galaxy Boys adventure with those who might also dream of what is really out there, awaiting those who accept the challenge to embark on a grand galactic adventure.

Special Feature: Understanding the author of Alice in Wonderland
