Andy Stanton in one of Old Granny's hats
Andy did not find the secret compartment containing a bottle of sherry, he just thought it was a really heavy hat
Andy Stanton lives in North London. He studied English at Oxford but they kicked him out. He has been a stand-up comedian, a film script reader, a cartoonist, an NHS lackey and lots of other things. He has many interests, but best of all he likes cartoons, books and music (even jazz). One day he’d like to live in New York or Berlin or one of those places because he’s got fantasies of bohemia. His favourite expression is ‘Good evening’ and his favourite word is ‘captain’. Andy has now written more than one book, but less than ten.
Some children kindly did some portraits of Andy. We're not sure who did the last one though...
"But wait" I hear you cry - who is the man behind the awesome illustrations that are strewn throughout the book? Well he is below this sentence (and he is the one on the left)
David Tazzyman lives in South London with his girlfriend, Melanie, and their son, Stanley. He grew up in Leicester, studied illustration at Manchester Metropolitian University and then travelled around Asia for three years before moving to London in 1997.
He likes football, cricket, biscuits, music and drawing. He dislikes celery.
