  • The Tower Bridge Cat Series

    After Tee produced the stunning visual guide –Tower Bridge 360, the team at Tower Bridge expressed an interest in having a soft toy linked to their iconic landmark. With her distinctive can-do attitude, Tee said “I can do that!”

    When The Tower Bridge Cat was published in 2018 it quickly became the best-selling item in the attraction’s gift shop and won a Children’s Book of the Year Award. A second book followed in 2020, a third in 2022 and the latest, an ABC book, came out in 2023.

    Bella the Tower Bridge Cat, is now much loved by children worldwide. Her interactive Tower Bridge Cat Trail is enjoyed daily by visitors to the Bridge and a range of merchandise is available from the Tower Bridge Gift Shop and yes, that includes a cuddly soft-toy Bella!

    Can Tee create a character for you?

  • The Smile Story

    Tee’s Smile Story book was inspired by a childhood conversation with her Gran about how a smile passed from one person to another all day long.

    In 2020, when the world needed smiles more than ever, groups of people collaborated on Tee’s ‘A Smile Works in Every Language’ project, translating her powerful story into different languages and recording them to share freely with people.

    Although written originally as a children’s book, Aspire Leadership feel that Tee’s pay-it-forward message is relevant to all and give this book out to delegates on their Leadership courses.

  • The Very Top of The Monument!

    The City of London asked Tee and Baizdon Ltd to produce a guide to this London landmark that commemorates The Great Fire of London, 1666.

    While one side extends to a one-metre photograph of the complete column, the reverse shows a panoramic view of the City shot through the gold flames at the very top of The Monument. For this image Tee and Baizdon’s architectural photographer Adam Parker were given access to the secret stairs above the the landmark’s public viewing gallery.

    To reach the summit, once they had unlocked the door and climbed the dusty stairs, they had to scale the internal wall-bars of the gold urn and clamber into the golden bowl at the top - a feat Tee found totally terrifying. Capturing a unique view was worth battling her fear of heights she says – and London did look magnificent through the golden flames!
