Their World

Two little dogs. A very big world.

From home life and road trips to investigations, reviews and illustrated adventures, everything in Direct Adventures begins somewhere in Izzie & Anna’s real world.

Real moments often become the best adventures…

Life with Izzie & Anna

Home. Travel. Toys. Treats. Family. Friends. Nature.

Everyday chaos. This is the real world the girls live in, and where so many of their adventures begin.

Same home.
Same routines.
Different perspectives.
Same adventures.

From Their World to the Books

Real moments inspire the stories.

A stare at the right moment. An investigation that probably wasn’t necessary. A car journey. A meeting. A robot in the garden.

In their world, ordinary days have a habit of becoming adventures.
