Looking back at another great week at the agency. This week we have some new cheerful children’s books, a new Moomin book out in Latvia and some nice publicity for one of the newest adult fiction books. Our busy bees in our foreign rights team have also made some wonderful deals. It’s time for our Publishing Weekly Wrap-Up that shares the latest activities, news, deals and much more from the past week. Here are the latest highlights.
We want to wish a happy publication day to Little Anna Looks at Animals and Little Anna Looks at Vehicles by Inger and Lasse Sandberg, published by Rabén & Sjögren. These colourful and playful board books are perfect for young readers who together with Little Anna learn about animals and vehicles.
New translated editions
