A Chinwag with Andy Griffiths
We have another special chinwag episode for you this week where we welcomed the brilliant children's author Andy Griffiths. We also had a quick catch up discussing the leaked Ofsted Crib Sheets and the opening line from Don't Stop Moving from S Club 7. Andy Griffiths is one of Australia’s most popular children’s authors.

Five of the books in the series have been adapted for the stage and have all had sell-out seasons at the Sydney Opera house, as well as highly successful seasons in the Netherlands, New Zealand and America.
