Following the success of the first six of Andy Lee’s interactive Do Not Open This Book audio books, LiSTNR today announced that Lee’s newest addition, Do Not Open This Book For Eternity, is available from today free and exclusive to LiSTNR.

The children’s book has been specially created on LiSTNR as a free, read along, interactive audio book. The series is the perfect listening companion for children and their parents, encouraging kids to “not” turn the page along with their favourite character “Wizz”, who is voiced by Andy Lee.

Special sound effects at the end of each page signal for kids and parents to turn the page.

Andy Lee is best known as half of the Hamish and Andy juggernaut, and is a podcaster, musician, TV presenter, and comedian. The Hamish & Andy podcast is Australia’s most popular podcast with almost 1 million listeners.

Lee became an award-winning children’s books author by accident. The first book in the series was only ever meant to have one copy. Lee wrote it as a surprise for his sister and her husband to celebrate their son George’s first birthday.

When he asked his mate to print him one copy, his mate said: “This book is good, can we print more?” Andy replied: “No. DO NOT print this book.” The rest is history with the book winning 16 book awards, becoming a best seller in Brazil, Portugal, France, Italy, Japan and Iceland and selected for Portugal and Brazil’s official state school reading program.

As a part of LiSTNR’s continued growth of its parenting and kids’ entertainment content, LiSTNR acquired successful children’s and parenting brand Kinderling which houses music, stories, and original programs that have become the cornerstone for LiSTNR’s kids and parenting pillar.

LiSTNR head of parenting and kids entertainment, Evan Kaldor, said: “The first Do Not Open This Book series has been a stand-out commercial and audience hit for LiSTNR. LiSTNR offers a premium audio experience and this is reflected in the high production values and whimsical narration by Andy as ‘Wizz’. The format also enables young children to develop their literary skills by reading along and interacting with the books. We hope that children, parents, carers, and educators enjoy this new addition to the award-winning series.”

Andy Lee said: “All I’ll say is DO NOT download it, DO NOT listen to it and if you accidentally do those first two things… definitely DO NOT enjoy it!”

Do Not Open This Book For Eternity is available on the free LiSTNR app.
