Grug
Template:Short description Template:Morefootnotes Template:Use dmy dates Script error: No such module "For". Grug is an Australian fictional character appearing in a series of children's books by the author Ted Prior. They were published between 1979 and 1992 by Hodder & Stoughton, Australia and have now been republished by Simon & Schuster, Australia from 1 June 2009. Three new books have also been published since 1992.
Grug was originally modelled after the fallen top of a Burrawang tree (Macrozamia communis),[1] but more closely resembles a grass tree (Xanthorrhoea), or a small, striped haystack. He is fascinated by the world around him, and solves problems that many children experience- such as learning to swim, going to school, and riding a bike- in fun, creative ways.
Theatre productions
Grug has spawned two plays; Grug, which "centres on the fun of visual surprise,"[2] and Grug and the Rainbow, based on several of the books and said to be "amongst the best children's theatre you will find".[3]
