Tim Harris is one of the most exciting children’s authors in Australia with several laugh-out-loud series for kids to his name, including Toffle Towers, Mr Bambuckle’s Remarkables and Exploding Endings. The first book in the Exploding Endings series, Painted Dogs & Doom Cakes, was awarded Honour Book at the 2017 KOALAs. His second series, Mr Bambuckle’s Remarkables, contains his trademark quirkiness, mixed with a touch of poignancy. The lead book was awarded a CBCA Notable in 2018 and has been shortlisted for the 2018 REAL Awards (as voted by children in NSW, Victoria and NT). He was a primary school teacher of 15 years, which kind of makes perfect sense really. His stories are filled with quirky scenarios, loveable characters and plenty of imagination
