![]() "Andy Stanton is a literary anarchist who has no truck with literary conventions and has created a whole new genre of bizarrely entertaining children's books" (Family Magazine). In the interview, which featured Mr Gum and the Power Crystals, Andy said, "All my life people have been telling me that I do things differently... I write for children, who are very sophisticated in what they can read and understand. Kids see lots of stories on TV and in books and films, and they understand what stories are, so I just say, 'we all know what a story is, don't we, so if I play around with that, it would be funny.'" |
