Who Poisoned Hennie the Whale?

Endre Lund Eriksen / Gisle Normann Melhus

Hennie the Whale is terribly ill and when it turns out that somebody has poisoned her, the Animal Detective Bureau takes on the case. Along with retired master detective Carl Berner and hyperactive mink Mirja, junior detective Nora tries to find out who’s behind it. The trail points in different directions, and maybe there isn’t just one criminal but several. A really, really gross and funny crime story from a place you’d never believe anybody could live – or at least not criminals.

Ella Bella Bingo

Frank Mosvold

Ella Bella Bingo sets up a circus at Sunshine Gardens with her best friend Henrik. Then Johnny moves into the house across the road and Ella worries that Henrik won’t be interested in the circus any more – or, worse still, that he’s sick of her and only wants to be friends with the new boy. When Henrik vanishes, Ella and Johnny do their best to find him. Who will find Henrik? Who will Henrik be best friends with? And will anything really come of the Sunshine Gardens Circus? This is an exciting, fast-paced story about friendship, with strong emotions and lashings of humour.

The Coffee Cod

Lena Lindahl

The Lofoten fishing season is underway and everybody wants to catch this year’s coffee cod – a fish weighing over 30 kilos that will earn them a kilo of coffee. The sea’s no place for little kids, say the fishermen, but Tora just scoffs at that. Because she’s ten and can do absolutely anything. Or at least that’s what Mum tells her. Tora sneaks off in the little boat and heads out to catch a coffee cod. But the sea is wild and the obstacles are many. A beautiful, fully illustrated story about brave girls, choppy seas and enormous cod.

Children's Books2020 · 40 pp · Age 3 - 6

Search-and-find-ABC

Kristina Farstad Bjerkek

A beautifully illustrated search-and-find book about animals! Search-and-find ABC is a stylistically assured book that combines facts about animals with learning the alphabet. Children can learn the letters of the alphabet at the same time as they have fun finding animals on every page. All the illustrations are in black and white, which makes the tasks that bit harder to solve and also gives the book a modern look. A perfect introduction to the non-fiction genre, this book is suitable for children between 2 and 6 years old.

Joke Lion 5 – Dad Jokes

Lise Dragland

Most fathers have their own peculiar form of quirky humour, often involving special puns or comical catchphrases that are repeated year after year. As well as being fun reading for children, this book may also get a few fathers giggling. Perfect for beginning readers who need a bit of humour in their reading exercises. Dad Jokes may perhaps be children’s first encounter with written humour and this book will give you plenty of authentic dad humour for your money. Maybe you can teach Dad some new jokes too? Clever puns and bone-dry humour make the jokes easy for kids to tell, too. Lise Dragland, who works as a creator at the Something Good communications agency, has been mulling dad jokes for a long time. Illustrator Cathrine Sandmæl has breathed life and movement into the dry jokes with her colourful and howlingly funny illustrations.
