This other world of Target books ranges from novelisations of popular US TV shows to reprints of classic adventures, to books about strange and mysterious phenomena like the Loch Ness Monster. There are books about witches and stray cats and griffins, children abducted by aliens, and telepathic space-dogs. Oh yes, there are lots and lots of books about dogs... A unique survey of a forgotten era in publishing, this guide is essential reading for enthusiasts of British children's literature, or Doctor Who fans who've decided that their Target novelisations could do with some company...
