Andrew Daddo's outrageous new collection of short stories follows some of the characters in the 'Sprung!' collections and introduces some new ones. And this time the stories are all about love. There's how to get your arm around your date at the movies, where to put your noses, how to help your mum and dad through The Talk, and how to handle being dropped.
Crushes, first dates, first kisses, first break-ups: for young readers it's a handbook on what to expect; for adults it's a hilarious reminder of what they were hoping to forget!
Through his television work with children, and his own parenting, Andrew Daddo started to write a series of short stories for young readers. Anyone who has seen Andrew on television knows that he is a born storyteller. And the stories in this book are the kind that parents and grandparents long for, and the kids themselves love: stories of adventure, comedy and mischief from an almost legendary Australia, a place that is often not reported in the daily news.
Andrew Daddo is fast becoming a major figure in Australian writing for young readers. Terry Denton is one of the secrets behind the success of Andy Griffiths' 'Just' series, and his illustrations put another mischievous twist in Andrew Daddo's adventures.
