Strangers In The Woods is the second book in the Laura McNaughty Adventures series for kids, teenagers and grown-ups alike. Simon Dudley’s, beautifully written and charmingly portrayed, children's book series is a pleasure to read.

The lost and nearly forgotten years of 1950’s childhood can be experienced within these pages as the author cleverly immerses you into their world.

This is a real treat for any reader, young or old, who fancies a bit of time travel back to when kids could literally be kids.
