🥳 What a weekend!!!! ☠😻

Thanks to my co-author in crime, @denisknightauthor for all the work and imagination and words and laughs that went into publishing the third instalment in the Wednesday Weeks series of comedy fantasy science-meets-magic adventures! And huge thanks to everyone who attended today’s launch of Wednesday Weeks and the Dungeon of Fire 🔥🔥🔥 at @theliteraturecentre

Slug-tastic

The weather was dismal. The catering appalling. And the pizza recipes left a decapitated slug taste in your mouth.

Huge thanks to everyone who came to our very own dungeon book launch at @theliteraturecentre on site at the Fremantle Prison!!

What a pity the whole dreadful comedy launch was ruined by the awesome company. ❤❤❤ Goblin King Gorgomoth would not be impressed 😄🤩🥳😜🥰

Thank yous!

Especial thank you to Launch Legend, Children’s Book Council of Australia WA Branch past-president and lifelong children’s book supporter @nicholls_jan , and to our tireless and creative publisher and editorial team @hachettekidsanz , and to the Lit Centre team for a brilliant venue and all that support, and to our awesome photographer Elena, our super show volunteers, our supporters, families and friends and more 🥰🥰🥰 We love you!!

Comedy adventure childrens book gold

If you know a young reader who loves funny books, or a reluctant reader you want to hook on reading, or a science-lover who usually sticks to non-fiction…or basically anyone who loves children’s books and is aged 8+, then I totally recommend you hit up your local independent bookstore and ask them to pretty-please order you a copy of Wednesday Weeks!

There’s book 1, Wednesday Weeks and the Tower of Shadows (CBCA Notable Book and shortlisted for the WA Premier’s Book Awards!)…

Book 2, Wednesday Weeks and the Crown of Destiny (complete with sassy faeries, podiatrist trolls and deadly fungi and fun guy)…and

Book 3, Wednesday Weeks and the Dungeon of Fire (if you love runaway pizza train rides through a live volcano…well, let’s just say this is the book for you ;-))

Thanks again Elena for the awesome photos! There was laughter, there was tears (and not just on stage), there were crowds of toilet paper enthusiasts and vortex cannon fans. Plus a rude skull, DIY worms, Alfie Junior the robot and more. It was so much fun! Live event book launches are just the best!!! THANK YOU booksellers, librarians, readers, teachers, parents and book lovers everywhere for all the love our Wednesday Weeks series is receiving. We love you!
