My Sister’s a Burp

When a friendly stork finally delivers teeny-weeny Zeke and Eppie home from mermaid kingdom, they jump from his beak to fly down and kiss their mother but she accidentally swallows them instead. What follows is a chuckle-choc-a-block adventure full of bubbling brains, jealous germs, fluffs, evil eyes, sneaky snot, wild worms, heroic hearts, forgetful fingers, bouncing bottoms, hysterical hair, ticklish teeth, arm armies and tap dancing toes. And that’s all before Mum realises that Zeke and Eppie are even missing. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Gretel Killeen is well known as a radio and television personality and as a stand-up comedian. Her hilarious articles in various leading Australian newspapers and magazines enjoy an enthusiastic following. She has published an impressive list of best-selling books, including the runaway success My Life is a Toilet, and the popular My Sister’s series. Her innovative picture books include Cherry Pie and What’ll we get for Grandma? Gretel lives in Sydney with her two children Eppie and Zeke.
ABOUT THE ILLUSTRATORS Having practised strenuously at home upon all manner of forbidden surfaces (bedroom walls, their own arms and legs and each others faces), Zeke and Eppie, the hero and heroine of the My Sister series, emerge from the pages to illustrate this tale. While both prefer to draw themselves attractively and illustrate each other as blobs, the contributions of the real life Zeke and Eppie have intriguingly added a new dimension to the My Sister series as the lines between reality, imagination, character and fiction blur.
