BUZZY BEE BOOKS
​
Based on the famous New Zealand toy.
Every NZ baby has a Buzzy Bee!
15 books, including 4 stories, ABC, 123, colors, weather, shapes, sizes, posters, friezes, and an extensive line of other products.
I wrote all the books and also illustrated them with the assistance of my 'Merlin Mystery' art collaborator.
​
The Buzzy Bee toy is not known outside New Zealand, but is extremely popular inside the country. It is our 'Mickey Mouse'.
When my children were young, I realized there were no printed Buzzy Bee products at all, so I contacted the toy owner, and put together a deal. For two years I developed and managed the licensing of all Buzzy Bee products.
​
The real value however was the opportunity to write and illustrate books that were certain to be best sellers, thanks to the built-in audience. They were all a delight to write and illustrate, and very profitable.
