Mimi Brocoli and the Lord of Montzen

Martine Vanderheyden

Martine Vanderheyden was born in Belgium to a Belgian father and a Rwandan mother. Teacher and founder of the publishing house Editions NAKUONA Forlag, she has been living in Norway since 2006. Her professional background, as well as her status as the mother of four 'little Vikings', allows her to know the extraordinary world of children's literature. As she couldn't find enough books dealing with themes that are dear to her, she wondered: "How to tell children difficult stories while keeping a part of dream and hope?"
