Danish dinosaurs

This is cool and meget fint: the Danish publishing house Turbine Forlag bought the rights for the Danish translation of IK BEN BIJ DE DINOSAURUSSEN GEWEEST (I WAS WITH THE DINOSAURS), the picture book that Floor de Goede made (and that I wrote the text for).
The book will be in Danish shops in a few months.

Originally this book was issued by Querido in Amsterdam, and rights can be negotiated here

NINO and the MACHINES are flying on

French NINO, with Prix Sorcières-sticker!
Two new translations coming up!
First of all the Danish rights for FEEST VOOR DE MACHINES (A PARTY FOR THE MACHINES), the wonderful picture book Liesbeth De Stercke made, were sold to Turbine Forlag. Great!

And there will also be another HET HONDJE DAT NINO NIET HAD (THE LITTLE DOG NINO DIDN'T HAVE). Rights were already sold to Germany (Bohem Press), China (Petrel), Denmark (Turbine), the United States (Eerdmans) and France (Didier Jeunesse), but now the book will travel to Brazil. Publishing house Pulo do Gato will issue the book in Brazilian Portuguese.

NINO is the book I made with illlustrator Anton Van Hertbruggen. He already got the Boekenpauw (highest Belgium award) and the Gulden Palet (highest Dutch award) for it, and recently the book got the French Prix Sorcières!
Both books were initially published by the Flemish publishing house De Eenhoorn.
