Dad Said

Author:Russell Anderson is a first-time author living in Geelong. He is a proud father of two adult children and an involved grandad of two amazing and inspirational grandchildren. It was during a time of play that the idea for the children’s book series called Dad Said was birthed. His daughter and the mother of his grandchildren, Christine Christodoulou, has provided all the illustrations; making this exciting endeavour a true family effort and one of many to come. Illustrator:Christine Christodoulou is a mum with two children and has always held the priority of her family in the centre of her life. Growing up, and as an adult, she has always enjoyed drawing as a hobby and was thrilled with the idea of illustrating a children’s picture book with her dad, Russell Anderson. Working closely together on their first book and involving her children along the way, has shown how family-focussed projects can bring so much joy and excitement for all.
