Like the spacebus, I teleported in my new birthday spaceship to 100 kilometres above the Earth’s surface. Then, I made the ship invisible and flew down to my designated location—Hamilton House, in the country town of Tanglewood.
The front door of Hamilton House was boarded up, so I teleported straight through the wall and tried to make myself at home.
We are not told much about what to do or what will happen when given our first solo mission. It is left up to us and synchronicity…
Cha Chu Panians are not very tall. Their skin has a soft bluish glow, and their large black eyes reflect all the colours around them. Most of my classmates from the Birthing Village look like this.
I don’t. I’m a hybrid.
My mother and father are hybrids, too. A hybrid is a mixture of different kinds of DNA. It isn’t random, like rolling a dice. It’s carefully chosen so the child becomes exactly who they need to be. Although… sometimes a real dice is rolled because we trust synchronicity. Synchronicity is when something seems random, but it’s not. Really, it’s perfectly organised…
Every ten years, the birthing village of Cha Chu Pani comes to life. People who want to be mothers and fathers travel to the village. Each person is paired with someone they love and get along well with. On Cha Chu Pani, everyone loves everyone, but sometimes two people have a special reason to spend more time together. I was my parents’ special reason to be together…
A novel by Donna Goddard and her granddaughter, Aisha Bailey,written for 7 to 12-year-olds. Together, they draw on imagination, family stories, and the beauty of life — both the mundane and the extraordinary — to create tales for children.
Foxie is no ordinary child. She comes from Cha Chu Pani, a peaceful world where children grow in glowing bubbles, creatures live in harmony, and everyone communicates through thoughts. As a hybrid Contact Child, her first solo mission is a big one — Earth.
After a secret night landing in Tanglewood, Foxie is taken in by Aunty Em and Uncle Harry, who believe she’s simply a lost girl with no memory. But Foxie knows exactly who she is…
Earth brings many surprises: new foods, strange customs, powerful emotions, and a maddening foster girl named Maddie.
A magical, uplifting adventure about understanding, listening, courage, love, and seeing Earth through new eyes.
Chapter 1: Cha Chu Pani
My name is Foxie, and I come from a long way away. A very long way away. Much farther than you’ve ever imagined.
My planet is called Cha Chu Pani. In our language, cha means one, chu means two, and pani means dancer. Cha Chu Pani has a twin planet, and we cha-cha around each other like two dancers. A year is longer here than on Earth. It takes us 454 days to get around our sun. It only takes you 365 days…
Goodwood (Book 2 of Riverland Series) is now available as an audiobook. The Riverland Series is for 6 to 9-year-olds and their young-at-heart old folk. It is based on things that happened in our family over two generations. We would love to share Nannie’s Nest, Moon Hill, the Rock King, the Dividing Lines, Goodwood and, of course, Riverland with you and your family.
“I gave Nannie ideas for this series and told her what I liked and didn’t like. Also, as you can see from the pictures, we did the things in the story. Nannie said that the most helpful thing I did was to be myself. It’s hard when you try to be someone that you aren’t. But being yourself is the easiest thing in the world because you are already it!”
My young co-author and I are happy to let you know that the next book in our children’s fiction series, Goodwood (Book 2 of the Riverland Series), has been published!

Riverland (Book 1 of the Riverland Series): “I wasn’t the first one in my family to visit Riverland. The first one was Uncle Tim. He was five and went there because of his dog. Many years later, I also went when I was five because of my dog. Since then, a lot has happened in Nannie’s Nest.”
Goodwood (Book 2 of the Riverland Series): “I bang my magic staff on the ground and say: I am strong, I have all the help I need, I am safe, I can deal with problems, I am loved, I get bright ideas, I make the world a better place, I am happy, I glow with moonbeam light.”
