Doctor Grundy’s Undies
Dawn McMillan & Ross Kinnaird
Popular author-illustrator pair returns
with new book out today
Doctor Grundy lost his undies.
His best ones, supersized!
When a strong wind blows past Doctor Grundy’s clothesline, away fly his undies.
They land on a pirate ship, are blown on to Scotland, get a mend in China – but will they ever find their way back home?
Doctor Grundy’s Undies is a funny, colourful story for primary age kids from Thames author Dawn McMillan and Auckland illustrator Ross Kinnaird – whose previous works include the bestselling I Need a New Bum! and Why Do Dogs Sniff Bottoms?
“The idea for the mischievous undies came from the Dad’s underwear in I Need a New Bum!” remembers Dawn. “What if Doctor Grundy had a pair of equally outrageous boxers?
Anything could happen … and it does!
“The book has had a great response at recent school readings, and I hope everyone has a lot of fun with this one,” she says.
