Andy Lee: Australian comedian-author behind the Do Not Open This Book interactive picture-book series — gleefully silly, fourth-wall-breaking read-alouds for ages 3–6.

Andy Lee is an Australian comedian and author best known to children's-book readers as the creator of the Do Not Open This Book interactive picture-book series (illustrated by Heath McKenzie), gleefully silly, fourth-wall-breaking picture books that beg the reader not to turn the page. The series has become one of the bestselling Australian picture-book properties of recent years, with strong read-aloud bounce for ages 3–6. Lee is also a TV presenter (The Hamish & Andy Show). A reliable contemporary celebrity-author picture-book voice with serious child-engagement quality.
