 The Ant Anthology came about when Rob and his son Ben, then aged 6, were watching Noel Edmonds's Multi-coloured Swap Shop.
The programme set a competition asking kids to write in with their own ant names. Rob created his own ant alphabet and entered the competition - but in his son's name.
Come the following Saturday, Rob's Ant Anthology was read out on Swap Shop, much to the programme team's amusement. They thought Ben was pretty smart for 6 years old!
