Reviews

“Dear Mr Mac

 May I just say I am a huge fan of your book, The Super Weirdos. It is so funny and entertaining, probably the best book I have ever read. You have such a great sense of humour and I am really excited for your future books. My teacher bought it for our class and I was the first to read it. Everyone who has read the book thought it was awesome. I thought it was great.

Yours sincerely,

Mr Mac

Mr Mac is a primary school teacher who writes illustrated novels to engage readers aged 7 – 12.

His books are jammed packed full with jokes to make kids and adults laugh, his books have something for everyone. Mr Mac considers himself a very lucky author because he works with his target market every day and can check to see if he’s on the right track or he can ask for ideas of what they find funny. While writing his books, he reads them to his class and tweaks them to be the best product possible. He has had outstanding results with his first book, The Super Weirdos and the Battle of Bash because it got the seal of approval from the students in his class to say the book is FUNNY! As a teacher he has written questions and core curriculum subject worksheets to allow teachers time to teach. These are free and downloadable from his website (see the website button below).
