K-Zoner Mia: How long did it take to write The 13-Storey Treehouse?
Andy G: “It took about two and a half years.”
K-Zoner Gil: Why do the treehouses go up by 13 levels?
Andy G: “That just kinda happened. I asked Terry to draw a really cool tree house with a bowling alley and a tank full of man-eating sharks, and he came back with 13 levels. 13’s a pretty cool number.”
K-Zoner Giulia: Did you make up all the stories in The Bad Books or are some of them true?
Andy G: “They’re mostly made up. I think? Oops.”
K-Zoner Hugo: Have you always told stories?
Andy G: “Yep. I used to tell my friends made-up stories about things that I’d done, like fighting a shark in the bath or jumping off the roof and flying around.”
K-Zoner Leo: Did you have any life-changing moments after the books became famous?
Andy G:“Ha ha ha. No. I didn’t go and buy any sports cars or anything dramatic like that.”
K-Zoner Harry: If you had a 2D/3D converter, what would you put it in?
Andy G: “Probably a book, cause writing a book is pretty magical.”
K-Zoner Will: How did you choose your illustrator? Did Terry have to try out?
Andy G: “We were set up by the publishers on my first book 20 years ago. They thought it’d be a whacky match cause of our sense of humour.”
