The books

Books for children and young readers — and a novel, short stories and poetry.

Here are my children's books about feelings, friendship and belonging — for children from about three to twelve, many of them written to be read aloud. I also write poetry, literary prose and new forms of storytelling.

Most of what I write shares one interest: people.

Who do we become alongside others? What makes us feel safe? What happens when we feel left out? And how do we find our way back?

Unless stated otherwise, the books are published in Danish. Titles are given in Danish with an English gloss.
