Roope Lipasti’s & Väinö Heinonen’s STONE AGE HEROES sold to Straarup & Co!

Publisher Straarup acquired Danish rights to the first three books in Roope Lipasti’s STONE AGE HEROES series! Väinö Heinonen creates the expressive, comic-style illustrations.

‘The Stone Age Heroes offers a wealth of opportunities to learn about life in the Stone Age. It brings history to life in an engaging way, and I think many children will find it exciting. You can really sense that the story is firmly grounded in what we know about the period and how people lived in the Stone Age.

The cast of characters is varied, with a strong girl, a brave boy, and several other entertaining personalities among the main characters. I believe this will give both boys and girls someone to identify with, as well as plenty to laugh about.

We are really excited about bringing The Stone Age Heroes to Danish readers and very much look forward to publishing the series in Denmark.’ —Per Straarup Søndergaard, Publisher/Straarup&Co., Denmark
