The Creation of Eddie the Egg

I have a 19 month old son called Finn, so I thought being an illustrator it would be nice to get a children's book published for him. This is when I remembered a series of cartoon books I had written when I was 9 years old, I remember everybody liking them and getting an award at school.
So I started searching in the loft and I managed to find them. It seemed like a simple idea and the fact that they were written by a kid made me think that it might work. I updated the pictures but pretty much kept the story the same and after and few months here it is published and ready to buy. So here it is The Adventures of Eddie the Egg (series 1) (theres another baby due in may!!)

Check out the site http://www.eddietheegg.com if you do not fancy buying the book there are some cool games and some fun cartoons, with the site being updated constantly.
