About Alex

Children's author Alex has been reading and writing since he was a teenager.

His debut novel Marv and the Mega Robot was inspired after Alex struggled to find superheroes in fiction who looked like him. By creating Marv, a superhero whose strengths are kindness and imagination, Alex hopes to have created a character to whom all children can relate.

He is also the co-writer of Marcus Rashford's first fictional book, The Breakfast Club Adventures: The Beast Beyond the Fence. A previous winner of Spread the Word's 2019 London's Writers Awards for YA and Children's, Alex lives in Honor Oak with his two cats.

About The Breakfast Club Adventures: The Beast Beyond the Fence

There's something fishy going on at school . . .

When 12-year-old Marcus kicks his favourite football over the school fence, he knows he's never getting it back. Nothing that goes over that wall ever comes back. But when Marcus gets a mysterious note inviting him to join the Breakfast Club Investigators, he is soon pulled into an exciting adventure with his new mates Stacey, Lise and Asim to find out what is lurking on the other side of the fence – and get his football back!

Dive into an exciting and mysterious adventure full of fun-filled friendships, fantastical creatures and incredible investigations inspired by Marcus Rashford's own experiences growing up.
