Fina, the world-travelling stork, and Liam, the adventure-seeking marmot, share a great passion: like their author, they love to conquer the world travelling.
Similar to my travel blog, my children’s books contain stories about adventure, meeting new people (or animals, in this case), languages and proverbs. The books are beautifully illustrated by the lovely Anna Schumann and, thanks to interactive QR codes, are perfect for reading from an early age on: Ages 4-99 will love them. You may even draw in my children’s books, on the double-sided travel map in each volume!
Where can you buy the children’s books?
The best (and easiest) way to order is via Anna’s webshop: www.editionpeas.com. Before checking out, you can enter a dedication and receive a fun bookmark (volume 1 for € 14.90) or a cool sticker sheet (volume 2 for € 16.90) with your order!
Of course, you can also send me an e-mail and order directly from me: reachme@creativelena.com! The children’s books are currently also available at Thalia Krems, the Korneuburg bookshop, the Tiempo Nuevo Genuss bookshop in Vienna 1020 and in Burgenland.
Storytelling workshop with readings at schools, kindergartens and events.
Since my children’s books “Die Abenteuer von Fina und Liam” were published, Anna and I have regularly organised book presentations and readings through interactive storytelling workshops. This format, addressing all ages from toddlers to teenagers, is very popular! Anna has created her own colouring and crafting pad, which we give to all participating children!
Reading from my children’s book “Die Abenteuer von Fina und Liam”
Podcasts, video and further information about my books.
Writing the stories in volumes 1 and 2 was a lot of fun. Among other things, I even managed a wonderful writing retreat in Carinthia, benefiting from the valuable experience of numerous other (children’s book) authors.
Both books were illustrated by my dear friend Anna Schumann, whose talent and creativity in graphic design and illustration knows no bounds! So it’s no surprise that we both met for the first time while travelling?
Below you can hear us talk about our beginnings as children’s book authors and illustrators in the video and listen to the first chapters of volumes 1 and 2 “Die Abenteuer von Fina und Liam” in the podcast interviews.
We are already looking forward to your orders, your feedback and that of your children! For now, my dear international readers, I regret to say the book is only available in German language. Both Anna and I are keen, however, to add an international language edition of it soon, so stay tuned for the English version to come!
