Our wonderful Excellence-award winner Katharina
Grossmann-Hensel presents her new Picture Book on our list.
"Grandmapa are the best!" . This time it is about grand-
parents and their lovely relationship to their grandchil-
dren told and illustrated in Katharina`s warmhearted
and humorous style. Her previous books have been sold
to nine countries.
With “Manners for Beginners” we have an other import-
ant topic after “Tidying-up for Beginners” and “Falling
asleep for Beginners” in our great picture books series
“….for Beginners”.
Also please take a look on the artistic illustrations by
Susanne Smajic in the musical picture book “Peter and
the Wolf”.
Among our Children´s Books do not miss the funny
“Gang on the Roof”: Owl and Weasel take over the city.
Be careful! With our "Midnight-school – The first hour
of ghosting " it turns spooky.
The gripping YA novel "Heartmaker" invites you to join
the fascinating adventure of Leo, who is capable to bring
mechanical hearts of dolls to life.
Please browse through our list and take a look on our
great new books. Let me know if you like to receive more

attending the upcoming Children`s Bookfair in Bologna,

I am looking forward to hearing from you!
