Forthcoming from @enchantedlion.bsky.social ODDS AND ENDS from Maija Hurme Tr by Mia Spangenberg is a Finnish book that enchanted me at first sight originally published by Etana Editions #workdkidlit #finnishkidlit This is the book that I will be talking about for 2026!

Cover of FREYA AND THE SNAKE shows a snake with its tongue out wrapped around a smiling Freya as she reaches out to touch it. In the distance Freya’s father is running towards them with a rake and bucket, dressed in heavy boots and gloves prepared for capturing the snake
