'Writing in Wet Cement is a hilarious Hotshots title from Andrew Daddo.
'Most kids will have to move house or school at least once - here's a story they can relate to!
'Sputz, the family dog, vomits and slobbers all the way to the new house, and Angus and Emily don't blame him. They didn't want to move in the first place! All their friends and family are back in the city and this place will never be a real home. The kids at school are either boofheads or bullies. And the teacher slobbers more than the dog. So it's quite a surprise when they find themselves fitting in.'(Publication summary)

'In this stand-alone sequel to Writing in Wet Cement, Angus Humpleberry finds himself more than ready for the 'blokey' part of growing up, but not ready for the 'girly' bits at all! The story opens with Frances teaching him how to kiss, but he needn't worry: she's only using him for practice till James Beilby grows up and takes an interest in her.'
