Boreas and the Seven Seas Goes National

BOREAS AND THE SEVEN SEAS Core Title for the Dutch National Children’s Book Week 2019

I had high hopes, of course, when the theme for the upcoming Dutch National Children’s Book Week (October 2 – 13, 2019) was announced: Travel Along! / Reis mee! And yes! Boreas en de zeven zeeën has been chosen core title. It’s an enormous honor and I am super super happy! I loved the journey of writing the Boreas books and I hope that lots and lots of kids will will join Boreas and travel along across the seven seas.
