Sunshine Coast International Readers and Writers Festival (SCIRWF) invited me to present two children’s author events on Sunday 13 August, 2017. WOOHOO! I’m absolutely thrilled.
I’m presenting an interactive children’s storytelling event AND a book marketing event for authors. Check out my author bio below…
Sunshine Coast Karen Tyrrell BIO
Karen Tyrrell is an experienced Brisbane school teacher and keynote speaker. Karen won three awards, four literary grants and a mentorship through the Society of Editors (QLD). She is a writing tutor for Queensland Writers Centre and Brisbane City Libraries.
Karen’s seven acclaimed children’s books Bailey Beats the Blah, STOP the Bully, Harry Helps Grandpa Remember, Super Space Kids Series, Song Bird Superhero (Song Bird 1) and The Battle of Bug World (Song Bird 2) ignite imagination and positive self-esteem. All books are available at the festival via Sandy Pages book shop in the Coolum Civic Hall nearby.
Sunshine Coast … Song Bird Superhero Battles Bug World
Karen Tyrrell (that’s me) performs Song Bird Superhero Battles Bug World with costumes and props. Her side-kick Super Bee AKA Steve Tyrrell shares tips on how to save bees and reads from his guest author chapter, chapter 6.
These are her latest books in an empowering book series that help kids live STRONG, utilizing humour and self-belief. Karen gives out FREE Capilano Honey bags with the purchase of The Battle of Bug World.
