Andrew Murray is a children's writer who lives in London, and works in a bookshop which has its very own Moon Rocket. His friends think he has too many weird ideas and eats too much cheese. Andrew likes stormy nights, and books about long ago and faraway places. He likes cats too, as long as they don't leave hair on his cheese. Jack Tickle likes painting in acrylic because when he spills coffee and food on his pictures, he can wipe them clean again! He likes to eat gingerbread men and chocolate cookies while he paints and he listens to loud guitar music or Radio 4. Mr. Tickle lives in Southwest England with his family and a large cookie jar!.
