Read about the Book

 

It is 1909 and Tom Jupe knows that his strict parents disapprove of the new 'moving pictures' but he can't resist joining the South Seas Film Company when they come to his town to film. Pretending to be Daniel Lyons, Tom has a blissful summer working on the film, but for how long can he keep up his double life?

 

A funny adventure story full of excitement that describes the very early days of the British film industry.
