A Choice of Miracles
by James A. Cox
About the author
James A. Cox appears to have written across several very different subjects rather than sticking to one lane. Confirmed titles include the science-fiction story A Choice of Miracles, the children's or educational book Put Your Foot in Your Mouth and Other Silly Sayings, and Shells: Treasures from the Sea.
That mix suggests an author comfortable moving between imagination, explanation, and popular science. In one place he is telling a speculative story set on another world; in another he is unpacking colorful English expressions for young readers; and elsewhere he is writing about shells and marine life for a general audience.
Reliable biographical details about his life were limited in the sources I found, so it is safer to let the books speak for him: James A. Cox comes across as a curious, adaptable author with an interest in both storytelling and making knowledge accessible.
