Winning the 4x100m relay at the 2025 Tokyo World Championships wasn’t just a medal moment for Twanisha ‘TeeTee’ Terry. It marked the start of something bigger. Her crucial second leg run kept Team USA in contention, paving the way for gold. Off the track, Terry is turning that momentum into inspiration with her children’s book. And it’s already catching on the hype train, with requests that have turned Terry’s emotions up a notch. 

Back on March 20, 2025, ‘TeeTee’ released her children’s book (co-authored by Dennis Vanasse), titled ‘TeeTee’s World Adventure’. Available at just $12.99 on Amazon, the book has already gained a five-star rating. And now, people are already sending orders for autographed copies. Taking to X, the Olympic gold medalist wrote, “I came home to 21 autograph book orders 🥹🤍 THANKYAAAAA.” 

Needless to say, the energy was way too high among the fans. But what took it up a notch was Terry’s off-track speed. A fan who had asked for a signed copy acknowledged this fact when she saw the shipping confirmation notification. And Terry’s response? She replied, “Yes sir!! Autographing and shipping them off was the first thing on my list.” That’s the kind of dedication that’s respected by the athletics community, don’t you agree? 

‘TeeTee’s World Adventure’ follows Twanisha Terry’s Olympic journey, showing kids how perseverance and teamwork can turn challenges into victories. It encourages young readers to explore new experiences, stay curious, and work hard toward their goals. She joins multiple athletes who have decided to write books for children and inspire them to be great. 

Tennis queen, Serena Williams, wrote a book called ‘The Adventures of Qai Qai’ after drawing inspiration from her daughter’s favorite doll. Published in 2022, the book received positive reviews, and the description said, “A little girl learns to believe in herself with the help of her doll and best friend, Qai Qai.” So, Terry’s in good company as of right now.

However, the gold medal at the Tokyo World Championships brought more attention to the athlete’s off-track finances. But do you know what motivated Terry to write the book? 

Twanisha Terry reveals the reason behind writing the children’s book ahead of the Tokyo World Championships

During the release of ‘TeeTee’s World Adventure’, Terry stated, “I’m a woman of many things, and now I’m adding ‘author’ to the list.” Yes, she has made quite an impression with her off-track activities. She has developed interests like crocheting, interior designing, and a lot more. Of course, it all started as something fun. Her master’s degree in entrepreneurship and innovation is certainly helping her grow after giving it all on track.  

‘TeeTee’ confessed, “Being known in different places and only just being known for the good things, being a role model to the younger kids and just seeing all the hard work and sacrifices pay off.” She’s truly amused by the fact that the name ‘TeeTee’ Terry is now known by many. Not just for her career on the tracks. But also for her interests away from it. Nevertheless, it’s her achievements that have pushed her off-track career further up. 

Terry began her medal collection with a silver in the 100m dash at the 2018 World U20 Championships, followed by a bronze in the 4x100m relay at the 2019 Pan American Games. She continued to claim golds in the 4x100m races at the 2022 Eugene, 2023 Budapest, and now, at the 2025 Tokyo World Championships. And how can we forget the gold at the Paris Olympics!

We can certainly expect more accolades from her, both on and off the tracks. But do let us know what you think of her book in the comments down below.
