Overview

A mesmerising new story and instant classic from the beloved author of the best-selling Very Cranky Bear books. Fancy Pants Tower is the biggest, shiniest building in the city. And Wolfred operates the lift. Each day he silently observes the extraordinary things he sees as he passes between the floors of the tower. To his boss, Wolfred isn't important enough to notice. But Wolfred notices everything – big or small, normal or very, very strange ... Wes Anderson's The Grand Budapest Hotel meets Helen Oxenbury's The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig in this hilariously oddball tale of Wolfred, an endearing elevator operator and writer, and the strange building he works in.

Author Information

Nick was born on a farm in Victoria's Yarra Valley, the son of two school teachers. When he moved to the bush at the age of 6, he discovered a wonderful new world and his creativity bloomed. Nick always wanted to be a cartoonist and a writer, but it wasn't until he got a job at a bookshop in his 20's that he finally found a way to bring those two loves together. Untrained, he spent the next couple of years reading every picture book that hit the shelves and began discovering his style as a storyteller and illustrator. He now lives in tropical Darwin where he works full time as an author and illustrator. Nick's books, which include The Very Cranky Bear, The Wrong Book and The Runaway Hug, have been recognised by many different awards, including the Children's Book Council of Australia, the Kids Own Australian Literature Awards and the Australian Book Industry Awards.
