Nelson is a hilarious illustrated junior fiction series from DJ, food writer, TEDx speaker, charity founder and all-round funny guy, Andrew Levins.
After Nelson discovers his nemesis - vegetables - are actually the key to his superpowers, he's called on to track down some of the worst thieves in town. But trialling the effects of eating an eggplant has disastrous consequences ... or will Nelson be able to control his inner beast and use it to get out of danger?

Andrew Levins has been a DJ since he was a teenager, and a food writer for almost as long. He cut his teeth as one of the inaugural DJs on FBi radio, plays most major Australian music festivals and hosts the longest-running hip-hop night in Sydney. His articles have been published by the Sydney Morning Herald, ABC Life, VICE, SBS, Good Food Guide and Time Out. In 2007 he co-founded the youth music charity Heaps Decent (with Diplo and Nina Las Vegas), and in 2009 he was named one of Sydney's 100 Most Influential People by the Sydney Morning Herald. Since then he's had two kids, run a successful restaurant, released a cookbook and started no less than five podcasts. The Nelson series are his first books for children.
