Meet Carter and Marlow Wright, two brothers from Far North Queensland who are the creators
of The Wright Bros. Comics. Early in 2024, Carter (8 years old) and Marlow (7 years old) were
prompted to start writing their own book after being inspired by a series of graphic novels that
they hired from their local school library.
The boys mum, Maddi, helped the boys connect with Stu, an award winning cartoonist from The
4th Monkey to help bring the boys vision to life. Both boys embarked on a journey to write a kids
comic novel; writing and sketching before and after school for months on end. Each night they
would send their daily sketches and ideas to Stu. Stu would work his magic overnight and send
the boys a draft page each morning to approve.
The book launched in August and is getting rave reviews from kids, mums, dads and teachers
across the country. Carter and Marlow’s vision is for PooHeads to be Australia’s biggest selling
kids book written by kids.
