The Adventures of Triz Series
📅When: Saturday 18th October
📍Where: Dymocks Brisbane City
⏲Time: 10.00-1.00pm
*The Adventures of Triz the Babysitter* and *Triz Destroys the Sun* by Damien and Haydn Crespan are part of a quirky, humorous series of children's books featuring the character Triz, an unconventional and adventurous babysitter.
In *The Adventures of Triz the Babysitter*, Triz is not your typical babysitter. She is bold, energetic, and always finds herself in outrageous, wild situations. The story follows her as she babysits children, but the events quickly take unexpected and amusing turns. Triz's unique approach to problem-solving and her ability to handle crazy situations make for a fun, fast-paced read that appeals to younger readers with a taste for excitement.
In *Triz Destroys the Sun*, the stakes get even higher. This book takes Triz's wild adventures to a cosmic level as she finds herself in a situation where she must somehow deal with a cosmic catastrophe — namely, the destruction of the Sun. The book is packed with absurd humour, action, and surreal scenarios, emphasizing the idea that Triz, no matter how improbable the situation, can tackle any problem head-on in her own unpredictable way.
The series is full of playful, off-the-wall humour that delights kids, with a mix of wit, imagination, and zany storytelling. The books have an irreverent and energetic tone, with Triz serving as a fun, larger-than-life character that young readers can follow in her wild, over-the-top adventures.
Don't miss this chance to meet the authors in person, grab a signed copy, and ask the boys how the adventures of Triz came to life.
