The inspiration for Daniel: The Boy the Government Wanted to Kill came from the author reading and seeing many science fiction stories in which an alien is hunted down by the government without any attempt to communicate with the visitor. When a child makes contact, he is pushed aside by the authorities and ignored. In this story Daniel learns to love the alien, and his younger sister Kate records what happens to them as they grow up. We are all aliens to strangers. We can only hope, when we meet, they will not hate us.
