Hello
It’s been a while since my last blog post and a lot’s been happening in my personal and professional life as an author
… all good stuff by the way and I hope to share more with you over the coming weeks.
So, I have 2 BIG morsels of news for you today.
First of all, my illustrator has finished the illustrations for the next Billy and Monster book titled – Billy and Monster Meet the President.
I subtly deal with an ever present danger in the world we live in today – terrorism.
I hope this book will be a springboard for grown-ups to share with their loved ones how to deal with strangers and practice good etiquette in public places. This should be out mid June and I’ll let you know when its live.
And now for (perhaps) the more exciting news…
The Billy and Monster Collection Audiobook is now LIVE and I’d like to offer you a free copy in exchange for a review.![Billy Combo Cover Red brick](http://davidchuka.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Billy-Combo-Cover-Red-brick-277x300.jpg)

This audiobook can be purchased on Audible, iTunes and Amazon.
Thanks for all your support and do have a great day.
Before I let you know what’s cooking, I’d like to wish you a Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
I’m happy to announce that I’ve done something I’ve always wanted to do and some of my fans have asked me to and that is to publish a boxset of the Billy and Monster books.
Included in this boxset are the first five books in the Billy and Monster series. They are:
Billy and the Monster who Loved to Fart
Billy and Monster: The Superhero with Fart Powers
Billy and the Monster who Ate All the Easter Eggs
Billy and Monster’s New Neighbor Has a Secret
Billy and Monster’s Golden Christmas
Over the weekend, I posted the cover you see to the right on my Facebook page and asked family, friends, authors and fans to let me know what they think. One recurring theme was that the grey color was a bit dull so I’ve asked my designer to change it to a brick red and I know that is really going to stand out. If you have any thoughts, I’d be interested to hear them.
I have to admit that the driving force behind me doing this boxset was because I wanted to covert it to an audiobook. I use a company called acx.com (an affiliate of Amazon) to do my audiobooks and will be working with a professional voice-over artist over the next month to give Billy and Monster a voice. Can’t wait to share that with you.

Thanks for all your support. It’s much appreciated.

Today, I’d like to share with you the chance to win a signed copy of the Amazon Best-seller ‘Billy and the Monster who Ate All the Easter Eggs’ ![Billy and the Monster who Ate All the Easter Eggs](http://davidchuka.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/COVER-IMAGE-number-one-squeeze-187x300.jpg)
With Easter around the corner, this book will be a welcome addition to your loved ones library.
This is the third book in the Billy and Monster series and it has gotten about 48 glowing reviews on the Amazon website.
I recently read this book to Years 1 and 2 at Raglan Primary School and the children loved it. I’m sure your loved ones will too.
Before I reveal how you can enter to win a signed copy, let’s find out what happens with Billy and Monster in this Easter edition.
Billy and Monster love all the holidays as they get to spend quality time together. However, their best holiday is Easter as they get to eat their favorite food…CHOCOLATE!
This year, they’re spending Easter with Grandma Chocalicious who loves Chocolate even more than Billy. She’s an expert at making chocolate cake, chocolate waffles and even chocolate pasta.
This year Grandma Chocalicious has made a pyramid of Easter eggs for her party on Easter Sunday. Billy and Monster want one of the Easter eggs but Grandma says they have to wait till Easter Sunday.
What happens when Billy and Monster tip toe downstairs and the pyramid of Easter eggs comes falling down?
For a chance to find out what happens simply click the link below and you could very well have your signed copy just in time for Easter.
