Perth’s Favourite Radio Trio Launch Children’s Book for Telethon

Nathan Morris, Nat Locke and Shaun McManus, the beloved breakfast radio hosts of Nova 93.7’s Nathan, Nat & Shaun, are excited to announce the launch of their very first children’s book, What If?... We Wrote A Book.

The official launch will take place on August 22, when the show will broadcast live from Brentwood Primary School in celebration of Book Week 2025. What If?... We Wrote A Book can be purchased following the launch via the Telethon 2025 website, with all proceeds donated to the cause, supporting sick, vulnerable, and disadvantaged children across Western Australia.

 Packed with imagination, heart and a healthy dose of chaos, the book celebrates friendship, creativity and the magic of storytelling. Bringing the pages to life is illustrator Bridget Acreman, whose bold, vibrant artwork adds even more fun to the adventure.

 Nathan, Nat & Shaun have long been proud supporters of Telethon, and What If?... We Wrote A Book is a heartfelt extension of that connection. With every book sold helping to fund life-changing research, equipment and programs, the trio are thrilled to use their storytelling powers for good. Telethon 2025 marks its 58th year of supporting sick, vulnerable and disadvantaged children across Western Australia, giving WA kids the brighter, healthier future they deserve.

Nat Locke said of the launch, “Look, we talk a lot of nonsense on the radio, so we thought, why not put that nonsense in a book? It’s got a dog with an appetite problem, a footy-obsessed kid and a vampire bat, so it’s basically Shaun’s autobiography!”

Shaun McManus added, “When someone suggested we write a book, I assumed they meant colouring one in. But here we are, published authors! We somehow jammed our wild imaginations into a single story, and if it makes kids giggle and helps supports WA families and Telethon, then that’s a win.”

The trio are no strangers to bringing joy and laughter to audiences. Nathan, Nat & Shaun is consistently Perth’s #1 Breakfast show, known for its hilarious chemistry, iconic segments and strong connection to the local community. With over 15 years on air together, they’ve become a trusted part of their listeners’ daily routines and now, their storytelling is making the leap from the radio to the bookshelf.

What If?... We Wrote A Book by Nathan, Nat & Shaun is available to purchase from August 22 on the Telethon website

Nathan, Nat & Shaun can be heard from 6am to 9am on Nova 93.7 in Perth. Listeners can stream the show live or catch up with the daily podcast by downloading the Nova Player.
