I’m so thrilled that Hibernate With Me has been translated into German and French, and published by Gerstenberg and Belin Jeunesse respectively.
We talked about creating a font for the hand-drawn text with all the special characters for each language, but in the end decided we could keep it closer to the original by just drawing the text again by hand in German and French. (Also, my first pass at the cover for the US version was the green cover below that ended up being used by Gerstenberg, and I think it looks really lovely!)
I reworked this and the covers for these translations when my daughter was a few weeks old. It was tough, but a great impetus to dip my toe back into work, post-partum!
