New Zealand born writer, Alan Brough has always loved books, and even from an early age wanted to be a writer. Though he has had a career that spans many different things (dancing, directing and singing, to name a few), he recently decided he still wanted to be an author and hopes that his biography will one day include phrases like ‘bestselling’, and ‘award-winning’. Alan’s new book ‘Charlie an the Karaoke Cockroaches’, sequel book to ‘Charlie and the War Against the Grannies’ comes out on the 27 of June, 2017

Charlie returns to the pages in a more whimsically hilarious adventure than ever before. There are lurkers, strange teachers and orchestral insects. A mysterious box speaks and sings. There’s even a botching burglar. It’s all up to Charlie and Hills to save the day and protect three bugs from dark forces.
