Description
A hilarious Christmas picture book, starring the wonderfully grumpy Gus! Gus the dog doesn't like Christmas. He doesn't like carols, or cake, or Christmas jumpers. And he certainly doesn't like mistletoe. To Gus, a tree is only good for one thing, and it's not for hanging baubles on. But can everyone's favourite grump learn to love the season of goodwill? Brilliantly funny, Merry Christmas, Gus will appeal to everyone who loves Christmas . . . and to all those Scrooges who don't! From Chris Chatterton, the artist behind the bestselling Ten Minutes to Bed series.
Author Biography
Chris Chatterton began his career in graphic design and animation, working on a variety of projects including Dr Who and CBBC's The Dumping Ground. Chris' passion for illustration then led him to pursue a career as a freelance artist working on a number of children's books including the Gremlins picture book series and Dino Diggers. Now writing the stories as well, Chris considers his Gus picture book story to be semi-autobiographical as he claims his loveable grumpy dog character is based on his own grumpy moods! Originally from County Durham, Chris now lives and works in the basement studio of his house in Newcastle upon Tyne where he is also a Committee Member for the Society of Authors in the North.
