If you’ve ever wondered where I get my ideas from, the NPG has created an amazingly extensive exhibition that answers this question. Well, what are you waiting for? Come visit my sculpture and see inside my brain!

Andy Griffiths @andygbooks.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

The accompanying ‘Brainstorm’ exhibition, which will run until mid-2027, features over 130 of my favourite toys and weird objects, two bookcases filled with my favourite books, and 36 of my favourite records.

(I just hope they don’t get a monkey to play me and Terry’s pants don’t catch on fire like they did that time we tried to make a movie in The 78-Storey Treehouse.)

We're really looking forward to working with the incredible team at Werner Productions to make a TV series that’s hopefully even sillier and more ridiculous than the books.

Andy Griffiths @andygbooks.bsky.social · 01/04/2026

If you’re like most of our readers, you’re probably wondering if our Treehouse books will ever be made into a TV show. Well … guess what? They are, in conjunction with the ABC Australia and Werner Film Productions!
