David Richardson is the author of Doug & Stan, a fictitious series of funny, short stories for children told through rhyme. The Grizzly Hotel ? Open House 1 is his debut book. David was born and raised in a mining town in Nottinghamshire, England but now lives with his wife and three daughters in Adelaide, Australia. Significantly outnumbered by the female species, David climbs out of bed at 5am every morning to get stuff done before the daily chaos begins. His other career highlights include working as a Supermarket Trolley Collector (which is incredibly hard to do in the snow), Gardener (also incredibly hard to do in the snow), Police Officer (many people still don't believe he's tall enough to be a cop) and Toilet Buyer (don't ask)! Readers can connect with David at david-richardson.com.au.

Doug and Stan's workout takes a quirky turn when a pink teddy bear challenges them to a duel - with very grim consequences.

As they face selling their home to gym fanatics, Stan's injury dampens their spirits, but with Dotty's meddling and a mysterious floating bucket, they must act fast to avoid disaster and thwart her magical antics.
