The Hero Factory

Pia Sabel Gulling

Robin’s dad dies in a fire, and Robin blames himself for what happened. Could he have saved his father? Robin was also injured in the fire and needs to work hard to get back on his feet. One day someone delivers a box of his dad’s belongings to their door, but who is it? What does it mean that the address is written in his dad’s handwriting, on the same date he died? And isn’t it a little strange that neither the police nor the fire department ever found his dad’s remains? Robin discovers that his dad had many secrets, one of which was a hero factory hidden away in a decommissioned factory building. To find out more about his dad’s past Robin joins the hero programme. What’s actually going on? How did his dad live a double life without Robin or his mum knowing about it? Who can Robin trust? The Hero Factory is an exciting, mysterious, and action-packed story for readers aged 9-12. The book is the first in a planned series and is ideal for fans of the Artemis Fowl series, as well as the William Wenton books by Robbie Peers.

How to Talk About Death
Children's Books2023 · 80 pp · Age 3 - 6

How to Talk About Death

Anna Fiske

Death is next up in Anna Fiske’s How series. This is a topic that children are curious about, and which adults may find difficult to discuss. What actually happens with the body when you die? What’s a funeral? And why do we even have to die? Anna Fiske has an incredibly unique form of communicating, and in How to Talk About Death she speaks to the children at their level and takes them seriously, while also managing to write a heart-warming, inclusive and at times even funny book about death. A perfect conversation starter for anyone who has questions about death, or who knows someone who’s passed away. The How-series has been a phenomenal success both in Norway and abroad, and it has been translated into multiple languages. NOMINATED TO THE BRAGE PRIZE FOR BEST NON-FICTION BOOK FOR CHILDREN Useful and concrete about death "Children and adults grieve differently, and Fiske’s book is wide-open with tolerance and understanding. Fiske does what she does best: illustrates and explains in clear and thorough manner – and at the same time, simply and straightforwardly." VÅRT LAND

Why doesn’t the moon fall down?

Dennis Siva Lie

We’re back with 52 new questions children often ask, this time about science. How much does a cloud weigh? Who invented the internet? How many trees do we need to make one toilet roll?

Why doesn’t the moon fall down? is educational, easy to understand and humorously illustrated, and a perfect for beginning to teach science to children aged 6–9.

Sofia finds a song

Marit Larsen

In the middle of the hubbub of the busy city she lives in, Sofia discovers a mysterious melody. It stands out from all the other noises, it shines, it lights up, it has its own colour, it sneaks up through the city like a magical wind with a melody in it. It creeps through the streets and up through the floor she stands on, inside the soles of her shoes, it tickles her toes, her feet must dance, they are not able to stop, it’s as if the song is dancing with her rather than the other way around. But where is the sound coming from? In Sofia Finds a Song we’re taken on an adventure to find a melody with magnetic powers. Because when you find your own song, it is yours forever.
