I write for all ages, from the littlest ones to adults, but my sweet spot is middle grade, like the popular Boreas series that have already delighted thousands of kids in the Netherlands and Belgium. The first volume, Boreas en de zeven zeeën (Boreas and the Seven Seas), was elected focus title for the 2019 Dutch National Children’s Book, an honor that brought the book into all classrooms, libraries, and bookstores across the country. The same title came out in the famous Lijster series in an edition aimed at reluctant readers.
My short stories were published in magazines like the Bobo, and in the famous read-aloud anthologies of Ploegsma Children’s Books.
