Storymaze 6: The Obelisk of Eeeno
If you like calm, sensible, fluffy stories, then GO AWAY! Because this is a story about a LUMP OF ROCK!! The dialogue is not very interesting because lumps of rock don t talk! I bet you didn t know that. I bet you thought all the rocks and little stones chatted amongst themselves when you were not around. Well, it s not true. But here are 22 things that are true: 2 An obelisk is a piece of rock. A long thin pointy piece of rock. 4 The planet EEENO is just a piece of rock floating in space. 6 A parallel universe is really another-other piece of rock, just like the other piece of rock, but in the wrong place. 8 An author is just a piece of rock with a laptop. 10 Nell Smith had a dog, called Spot. Spot used to leave little rocks all around the garden. Little smelly rocks. 12 An obelisk is a big, fat, dumb, French comic-strip character. 14 Nico s favourite rock group is the Red Hot Chili Pebbles. 16 My mum s favourite actor was Rock Hudson. 18 He had rocks in his head. 20 So did my mum. 22 So do you.

Sprung Again!

release date: Jan 01, 2002
Sprung Again!
Here s another collection of Andrew Daddo s hilarious short stories that sold straight through their first print run for Christmas 2001, and generated a fantastic publicity campaign. Anyone who has seen Andrew on television knows that he is a born storyteller. And the stories in Sprung Again! 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. But what immediately strikes readers is that these stories are real . They re about football, fishing, camping, holidays, school gangs, growing up and dealing with the whole messy business of boyfriends and girlfriends, being part of the group or a nerd, so they will be eagerly read by both boys and girls. The stories are pacy and cheeky enough to appeal to the kids who love Andy Griffiths, but their resolution often involves little ethical issues that give them a strong appeal to adults. So Sprung Again! will be an ideal Christmas gift, and will have young readers and adults alike laughing with embarrassment at an author who s caught them out when they weren t looking. 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.

Storymaze 2: The Eye of Ulam
200 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT STORYMAZE 2 The Eye of Ulam 1. It is written and illustrated by the FUNNIEST MAN in a small part of the SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE. 2. It is a COMIC EXTRAVAGANZA printed with soy sauce on dolphin-free recycled tuna flesh pages. 3. It contains drawings by an ILLUSTRATOR with NO FORMAL TRAINING. 4. It is the second in a series of 12 books ... But I warn you, I may not get around to writing the others because I am a busy man (the busiest man in the southern hemisphere) (and maybe I have better things to do). 5. The word ''STORYMAZE'' describes a combination of a story and a maze. It has 9 letters. So does the word ''DOGCATFLY'' and the word ''CATDOGCAR'' and the word ''DOGDOGDOG''. 6. A rogue iceberg that escaped from Nell Smith''s fridge in 1902 smashed into a bridge in Nepal killing 328 penguins. 7. If you have ever wanted to travel to parallel universes, this is the book for you. It contains a lot of factual information that will assist you. 8. + 9. The person sitting next to you is an idiot. If there is no one sitting next to you then you are an idiot. 200. Because this book is printed on tuna flesh, when you have finished reading it, you can feed it to your cat. If your cat won''t eat it, then it is an alien dressed as a cat!
