    Elias Zapple

    Elias Zapple was not born in 1922, as some would have you believe. His date of birth is not really relevant anyway. What is relevant is that he arose out of a tulip that was growing in some old granny's garden in Camberwell. How he got to be in a tulip is not really clear, nor is it clear how he got out of the tulip, and years later wrote the smash hit musical, 'Love, be a Stranger', which was an international flop. After that success, he went on to work as a 19th century Victorian chimney sweep, when he was inspired to write the acclaimed series of books entitled 'Duke & Michel'. It is believed the fumes from the chimneys did so much damage to Elias, that it was a miracle he ever ate a cupcake again.  Later, he travelled back in time to the present, and went on a series of trips to many foreign and distant lands. During these travels, Elias met and listened to many interesting people, choosing to ignore all of them. He did, however, learn a couple of things: i) the earth is flat; and ii) you should never eat a banana when it's not ripe. Many questions are often asked by his adoring public. Are you human? How many chimpanzees can fit inside a fridge? What is that thing growing on the side of your head? To which Mr Zapple has always smiled, turned away and swum off into the sunset; having only once been bitten by an unfriendly shark. Elias Zapple continues to work towards the unification of Korea, and writing children's stories that parents will spend huge sums of money on. He wishes you all to know that every penny made from the books will go straight into his bank account, which he will then spend on a lavish, new tent.

      Foreword

      This is a book about slugs – just in case the title wasn’t clear. I am world famous for my love of slugs, my army of slugs and my appetite for slugs. Slugs are magnificent creatures and in this book you’ll get to discover why, as well as meet some of my most notable slugs. If you’ve read Elias Zapple’s Rhymes from the Cabbage Patch then you’ll be familiar with some of my slugs already. If you haven’t, then you shall be slimed. So, enter the world of slugs and enjoy. Fun and stickiness guaranteed!

      Steve the Slug

      Steve the Slug is perhaps the most famous of my slugs. He was my best mate until I accidentally killed him with my lawnmower. Steve was my top slug, closest friend, and the one that I could recite my poetry to during all hours of the night – once he listened to me for 36 hours straight and only fell asleep 28 times. He was an extremely loyal slug, standing side by side with me through thick and thin, and helping me to uncover the coup that Clyde the Slug was planning. He may not have had any special skills or superpowers
