Little Ned

Description

Every morning, Little Ned puts on his pants, his shirt, his shoes and, while he's at it, his heavy-duty chest armour, his spikey metal gauntlets, his razor-sharp sword and his iron helmet. What could possibly go wrong? Hilarious and heartwarming, surprising and brilliantly drawn, Little Ned is a story about the pitfalls of being too careful.

Michael Wagner is the author of more than 70 books for children including the much loved Maxx Rumble series (still in print after 15 years), the bestselling TheUndys series, the So Wrong series (shortlisted for the YABBAs, KOALAs and KROKs this year), and the CBCA Notable picture books Why I Love Footy, Why I Love Summer and Bear Make Den (co-authored with his wife Jane Godwin). Before becoming a full-time author, Michael worked as a radio broadcaster with the ABC, wrote and produced animation for television, wrote comedy for ABC Radio National, grew up in a housing commission flat, and played in a band that almost became famous. He's the father of two and married to fellow-author Jane Godwin. Adam Carruthers likes to scribble. He also loves children's books. He is so happy that he gets to transform his scribbles and his imagination into magical stories. Adam scribbles in Melbourne where he lives with his amazing wife Jodie, three beautiful kids, Eden, Rylan and Tessa and their very old dog, Chloe.
