Aussie Bites is a series of short novels, aimed at 7–10 years old, written by a variety of Australian authors. Each novel stands alone, not forming linking storylines, although there are several sequels. They are published by Puffin Books, a subsidiary of Penguin Books.

Aussie Bites are identifiable by having a bite-mark cut-out on the top right corner of their book covers.

Following the success of Aussie Bites, Puffin Books have also released other similar series called:

• Aussie Nibbles (Junior readers)
• Aussie Chomps (Senior readers)
• Kiwi Bites (New Zealand's version of Aussie Bites)
