Walter Speazlebud, the ordinary boy with extraordinary powers who can spell backwards and travel back in time, returns for a new adventure! It’s a cconspiracy theory with a twist: the aliens want to save us from ourselves! It’s sure to have huge boy appeal for its off-the-all all-action adventure and not least because it has a fab holographic cover.

Until... he receives an urgent message from the American government. There's an asteroid hurtling towards the earth - and they need Walter to stop it! Soon, Walter and his dad are in New York, discovering that an alien nation is holding the world to hostage.
They are demanding the return of two of their people, alive. Only problem is, they died in an explosion in 1947. Walter must go back in time to save them.
Last time, Walter enabled Man to go to the moon. This time, he can save the earth. But will he be able to do it without Grandad?
David is a music supervisor for film, a songwriter, and a former music journalist and arts television producer. Like Walter Speazlebud, he speaks and writes backwards effortlessly – and has even been known to make people go backwards. He has a high profile in Ireland for this talent, thanks to appearances on TV and radio, and hugely popular amongst schools and libraries. He is often stopped in the street by people asking him to talk backwards.
