The deal

Step into the lively world of Gary Campbell’s children’s books — a creative collection filled with original tales that spark curiosity and laughter in kids aged about 6‑10 (and read‑aloud ready for younger children). The collection includes:

  • The Mystery of the Missing Socks — a playful story that tackles the age‑old question “Where do socks disappear to?” and comes with colouring pages.

  • The Monster and the Moron — set in the ancient kingdom of Moronia, featuring a fearless knight, a young squire‑in‑training and a monster to defeat.

  • The King’s Fish and Chips — also in Moronia, when the king seeks the best fish & chips and things take a wild turn with blue yaks, guinea pigs, sleepy hippos and snapping wildflowers.

  • Hootie the Baby Owl — a tender tale for younger children (ages 1‑3) about a baby owl discovering the world around her and meeting Australian animals.

  • The Invasion of the Guinea Pigs — a zany adventure where a school‑captain/ superhero and his loyal dog defend Earth from marauding guinea pigs and cabbages.

Each book is available in soft‑cover, flip‑book for devices or downloadable format. The stories are illustrated with original art, and written to delight children while offering opportunities for discussion (about courage, discovery, playfulness and imagination). Whether you’re looking for engaging bedtime reads, classroom resources or gifts, this collection brings inventive storylines with Aussie flavour and plenty of fun.
