Hi Andy,
Yesterday I got a $40 gift voucher at Borders. I am going to spend it on Mascot Madness. I have met you at Warringah Mall and you signed all of my books, I had a lot!. I can’t wait for your new books to come out. I am reading Bumagedon at the moment. I bring it to school and read it there. my favourite book is what Bumosaur is that.
From your #1 fan, Jack

Hi Andy,
I went along to Fountain Gate on the 8th March so I could get you to sign 3 of your books for me and Mum took some photos of me with you as well. YAH!!! Getting to meet you in person was the highlight of my long weekend!! I am getting Mum to enlarge and print one of those photos out so I can frame it and put it on my bedroom wall. WOW, it will be the best photo on my bedroom wall but what I would really like, is to have it hand signed by you. That would make it ever so special. Is there anyway that I can get my photo hand signed by you?
From a keen story writer, Adrian

Hi Andy, my 8yo & 10 yo sons think you’re the BEST! They have all your books and the story cd versions which they play over.. and over… and over. I also chuckle along to the “Just” series but had to draw the line at the “Gross” story cd – that’s now played behind closed bedroom doors…..
I know you’re in Perth this week (it’s Monday night 23 March)- is there anywhere I could bring the boys so they could pay homage?

Hi Andy,
My names Conor and I’m a huge fan of your books.
I’m reading Pencil of Doom at the moment and it’s great.
Last term I sent you a letter from Como Primary School, Perth and you sent back a reply in a couple of weeks. Thanks for writing back, I was pretty excited. I love writing too so it was great getting a message from a pro writer.
I can’t wait to meet you one day when your next in Perth.
