      As some of you know I have been writing and illustrating children’s books lately.
      Finally my first book has been launched.
      Available only in Swedish at the moment. But title in English is: Mira Broom & Tom Hat - The Book of Spells
      It’s a chapter book for ages 6-9 and the first book of three in a series.
      I have also made a website for the book http://www.mirakvast.se

          I have both written and illustrated it.
          I actually used SketchUp to model a stair for perspective reference for a few illustrations.

                        Just wanted to say that I have self published 3 picture books on Amazon.

                        Untitled 2.jpg

                        They are in English and available here if anyone is interested:
                        https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/author/B0CPQ52HXW/allbooks?ingress=0&visitId=426cacec-1963-4ebd-a3c9-2d201f055d4c&store_ref=ap_rdr&ref_=ap_rdr

                        Only softcovers.

                        No news of a English version of Mira but I know a Danish version is on the way.

                            Just browsing through your website promises to be a lot of fun - for example I'd love to know what's connected to the shadowy guy called William Pokus 😄 😄 !?
                            Great that this beautiful project has become real 👍 👍

                                Without giving too much away I can say that Pokus stood for the wild untaimed magic and it is said that Hokus turned him into a shadow… or did he?

                                        Huh? We tried today and couldn't buy. I'll try again.

                                        But I see this...

                                        ...and there's no way to order I can see

                                          I’ve research this a bit and it seems it can go out of stock when the printer has too much to do. Like before Christmas. I’ll keep an eye if it becomes available again. It’s still available at Amazon.com though.
