Andy Stanton

Andy Stanton lives in North London. He studied English at Oxford but they kicked him out. He has been a film script reader, a cartoonist, an NHS lackey and lots of other things. He has many interests, but best of all he likes cartoons, books and music (even jazz). His favourite expression is ‘good evening’ and his favourite word is ‘captain’. You’re a Bad Man, Mr Gum! was his first book and is the first in the bestselling Mr Gum series.

His new book, Natboff! One Million Years of Stupidity (which tells the story of THE WHOLE OF HISTORY and is 100% TRUE) published in June 2018.
