Andrew’s new Book was released on 15 July 2010 by Harper Collins.
Some monsters are scary, with pointy teeth and snuffly grunts-and they stink. You’d never invite them to sleep over! But there are other monsters that are cute and full of surprises…  Reading Age 0-12 years

It’s out.  I saw it in the bookshop window in Albert Park after having coffee with my mum and dad and if there’s a good time to see your own book in a shop window, that would be it.
Oh, darling, said Mum
Did you do that?  said Dad.
Very exciting.  Hopefully you’ll have an oh darling moment when you have a look at it, too.

Coming out in Oct 2009
This is the new book by Andrew and illustrator Jonathan Bentley.    The same tame that brought you I Do It – the picture book inspired by Andrew’s daughter who was pretty sure she could do anything – everything!
Check On Me is in a similar vein and inspired by one of Andrew’s kids.  Jonathan was able to take the text and turn it into something truly beautiful.
These are some of the test sketches done by Jonathan, you’ll love the real ones, out October 09 through ABC Books.

Angus Humpleberry’s story as he grows up. He can handle the ‘blokey’ bits of getting older okay, but he is wholly unprepared for the ‘girly’ bits. When he finally passes his farm motorbike licence, he takes his grandpa’s bike out for a spin without permission. He runs to Billy Wesson for help, but they discover the motorbike has gone missing.
Will Angus get the bike back before Pop finds out?

On a school camp in the Snowy Mountains the twins are keen to get to know some of the girls. Jack likes Angela and Josh likes Jude, but they pick the wrong activity to get closer to their chosen girl. Can the girls tell them apart?

Fergus is growing up and so are his mates.  Including Winona Williams, who Fergus has feelings for, he’s just not that sure what the feelings are all about.
This book will teach you exactly nothing about relationships and being new to them, but it will make you laugh.
Have you thought about what you’re going to do if you get dropped?  What will you say?  How will you …

Angus and Emily have just moved to a new house and no one is happy, especially not Sputz the family dog (who vomited the whole way there).

That Aussie Christmas Book successfully fills a gap in the market for Christmas titles. Ideal for dipping into, the combination of short stories, jokes and mutant carols are threaded together by a first-person narrative.

This charming picture book for the very young perfectly captures a child’s determination to be independent – at all costs. Andrew Daddo’s beautiful story, coupled with Jonathan Bentley’s delightful illustrations, will touch the hearts of all.

 
How I Do It came to be…
Andrew Daddo thanks his youngest daughter for ‘I Do It’. Says Andrew ‘She’s a beautiful, headstrong three year old who has always been very good at exerting her independence. She can, as the book suggests, do it. Anything, everything – whether it’s getting a glass of milk or choosing …

Angus and his best friend, Billy, decide to do what they do best: stir up trouble! While Emily, Lisa and Frances are out, Angus and Billy go into Emily’s room and set all sorts of traps: they short-sheet the girls’ beds and put itching powder in their socks-and-undies drawer. But there’s an even bigger trap Billy has set without Angus’s approval—and it’s not going to be pretty!
