Welcome to Everything-World ~ The elusive 10th Red Wool Editions adventure, where YOU and your kids are the main characters and co-authors… Each of my current storybooks has an accompanying “ride” in my imaginary theme park called EVERYTHING-WORLD. A travelling circus that leaps from mind to mind. Each ride has the theme of their accompanying…
All of a sudden my creatures got so bored with just being in my storybooks that one night they all fled their pages and ran away into the endless, timeless universe… “The Great Runaway,” they called it.
For a moment, all of them found themselves stranded in the middle of the nothingness.

Together they made an exquisite (not at all boring) theme park they called EVERYTHING-WORLD.

And if they don’t start living life now, right now, they might JUST MIGHT… START DYING.
They have hundreds of questions about why and how to live life, because they’ve only ever known what’s within the pages of my books.
They need to find someone, someone perhaps just like you, to think up all the answers to their questions…? AND THEN THINK UP SOME RIDES, WITH CREATURES WHO HAVE QUESTIONS OF THEIR OWN...
