Most recently his
Treehouse series has been a huge hit. And rightly so. As his Treehouse soars
from a 13 to a 104-storey construction it seems there is no stopping it; nor
the popularity of the series.
Griffiths collaboration
with illustrator Terry Denton is the icing on the cake. His quirky
illustrations complement the text and are equally appealing. It’s the perfect
partnership.
While Andy
continues to delight us with a steady supply of new material, let’s not forget
his earlier work. His “Just” series is ideal for kids who struggle to
concentrate on reading an entire book. Each story, hilariously illustrated by
the talented Denton, is around 12 pages of laugh out loud fun.
Like it or
not, “toilet humour” has a following and Andy Griffiths is a master of this
genre. We can’t forget his “Bum” series and with titles like “The day my bum
went psycho”. Who wouldn’t be tempted to see how it all turns out?
