The Terrible Trio_Book 2About The Terrible Trio, The Day the Mac ’n’ Cheese Ran Out

The Terrible Trio is a graphic novel series, best described as The Bad Guys meets Madagascar!

Already an international success, with rights sold in multiple countries including Brazil, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Israel, Mongolia, the Netherlands, Portugal, Serbia, Slovakia, Spain, the UK and USA.

When Zeb uses his superpower to blend in with a zebra crossing to play tricks on unsuspecting pedestrians, he finds himself in hot water with a very angry lion who threatens to EAT HIM! In an effort to extricate himself from the cooking pot, he promises Marge will make endless mac’n’cheese to feed Lion’s whole pride. Not a great time to discover Marge has suddenly lost her power! How can Zeb and Barry help her regain it in time to save Zeb’s bacon?

This much-anticipated follow-on to Book 1, The (not so) Superheroes, has already been sold to publishers in 16 countries prior to publication!

Come join Swapna Haddow’s funny and lovable characters—melodramatic Zeb, peacemaker Barry and morose Marge—in this new, action-packed, warm-hearted adventure. Hilariously illustrated by the gifted Minky Stapleton, whose wacky sense of humour really brings these characters to goofy life.

The second in The Terrible Trio series will be followed by Book #3, The Mystery of the Lost Cape, with another super-sized serving of slapstick comedy and heartfelt friendship.
