De Schatten in het Bos

Lovingly created for all children.
There’s no doubt about it—our little ones love it when we read to them. But finding books that inspire them to bring environmental awareness into their learning journey was something I found challenging.

There are plenty of such books for older children. I felt that these kinds of stories were missing for the younger ones. So, I decided to write these stories myself.

Mission
It became my mission to find a way to reflect the adventures of my own young daughter while also providing a realistic view of the world and nature.

I was seeking a purpose when it came to integrating climate-friendly actions into my life, and I wanted to encourage our little ones to do the same. These series of books are the result.

These are stories about children who embark on magical adventures, discovering playful ways to explore this world. In each book, our little ones are given fun, practical tips to apply. In these challenging times, I looked within myself and found what I love to do.

Dreams
With these storybooks, I combine nature with adventure and imagination. I love seeing how the toddlers in the stories dream through each tale, dreaming alongside the dreams I dreamed, and with her.

I am so happy to share this journey and perhaps help you better understand your toddler and young reader.

May your inner child always guide you through life!
