Hi! My name is Janie Ray, and I'm 11 years old. When I first got this diary from my mom, I didn't think I'd have all that much to write about. I mean, let's face it - fifth grade isn't exactly the most exciting thing in the world. But then, really strange things started happening. Like last week, my best friend Sheila and I were hanging out in our clubhouse, drinking lemonade and trying to figure out what to do about Marcia the Snob, when we suddenly noticed a weird inscription on this old medallion I found when I was little.

It was from this point that I wanted to adapt some of Africa’s best-loved stories into tales that could delight a very young audience.

When James hid in the Nothing Shop he didn't expect to find anyone there. And he didn't expect to find himself buying a box of nothing, a bit of the original nothing which was there before the universe began.
