I Can Do It Myself, Said Robin Hound

Alice Bjerknes Lima de Faria

Robin Hound has the best big brother in the world! But one day, when Big Brother says he’s ill and can’t take Robin Hound to kindergarten, Robin Hound feels disappointed and angry. “Fine,” he says. “I can do it myself!” And it goes quite well: he almost finds the kindergarten all by himself, he almost packed a lunch, and he certainly doesn’t need mittens or a beanie. “Isn’t anyone looking after you anymore?” asks Uffle. “Of course,” says Robin Hound but he starts to feel a little unsure. What if Big Brother doesn’t want to look after him anymore? A sweet and tender story about the joy of doing things on your own and the comfort of knowing someone is there to care for you. And how nice it is to have someone to care for, too.

The Farm

Brynjulf Jung Tjønn

On the farm, father mows the grass. The sunlight glints in the scythe. Agnar stands in the long, lush grass and looks on. This is his home now. Yet it doesn't feel like he belongs here. Agnar may well like it here, but he also doesn't. It's nice to be able to leave here, like when his mother and he travel to the city. But they will soon be back here. It's on the farm that Agnar will be now. With mother, father and the animals on the farm and in the forest. In Brynjulf ​​Jung Tjønn's young adult novel, the farm is both a magical and completely ordinary place, a refuge and at the same time a kind of open prison. There is always something rattling around. Nominated for the Brage Prize 2026 “I was thoroughly impressed by how deeply the author managed to explore the characters without concretely defining everything (...) There is so much depth embedded in his phrasing, making it a compelling read.”Framtida "The protagonist is torn between painful and tender feelings. The thoughts emerge like weeds, not unlike Per Dybvig’s illustrations in the book; it is dark, dense, and unruly, yet at the same time fragile—and original."Klassekampen

The Last Valkyrie

The Last Valkyrie

Hanne Eik

How far would you go to save the one you love most? Set in modern-day Oslo, The Last Valkyrie is a pulse-pounding mix of enemies-to-lovers romance, Norse mythology and a deadly competition for wealth, fame, life and death. Every girl in Oslo who turns 18 this year is invited to compete in the mysterious competition The Valkyrie. The prize is 3 million kroner, a sum that for Ava would change everything. But joining the contest means declaring war on her powerful stepfamily — the ambitious twins Kamilla and Lukas. Their mother, Helene Threshow-Spilberg, is amongst Norway's wealthiest, and the twins are known to be ruthless in order to get what they want. The twins also team up with a stranger, someone whose connection to The Valkyrie runs deeper than he will admit. And he will stop at nothing to keep Ava out of the competition. As the competition unfolds, Ava realises The Valkyrie is more than a contest. It’s a divine trial that could awaken forces older than time itself. To survive, she must solve the riddles of the Norse gods, uncover who her true allies are, and face the terrifying possibility that not all myths are fiction. With the emotional depth of Twilight, the fierce survival energy of The Hunger Games and the secretive intrigue of The Da Vinci Code, The Last Valkyrie launches a new YA trilogy where epic love collides with Norse legend — blazing with mystery, passion, and power.
