Author John Phillip Galea Debuts With 'The EyePoddettes'

Author John Phillip Galea has always wanted to become an author. This dream is realized with the publication of "The EyePoddettes" (published by Xlibris AU). This book tells the story of magical creatures who come to life in an unexpected twist of fate.

Jacko, a huge jacaranda tree and his age-old friend, River, have shared years of experiences together. A chance meeting with a very special wizard couple is the catalyst to a chain of events that can only be described as magical. Jacko is harrowed by what seems to be a tragic and disastrous event, but with River's friendship and help, they both soon realize that something most wondrous has happened. They meet the EyePoddettes who are set to enhance the lives of all who come across them. Loyal to Jacko, these mystical creatures return every evening after a day of fun and frivolity. Together they enjoy many adventures that teach them new life lessons.

Galea combines age-old wizard magic with new yet somehow familiar characters, making this tale ageless. This book enchants young readers with an engaging narrative and riveting twists and turns, taking them on an unforgettable journey. It requires them to unleash and let their imagination explore the magical world created through the pages of "The EyePoddettes."

"In these technology-focused times it is good to inspire children to use their imagination in a more simple and peaceful format," Galea says, adding, "If children and adults open up their eyes and see inanimate objects in a different light after reading my book then I am happy."
