"Hamish goes to Olso" childrens book first layouts

 

Text to be added in Norwegian with a short description of picture (i.e."Look at Mr Grieg and those singing Vikings, and what is Mr Amundsen waving to Scottie?")

New text to be added on bottom section of picture. Sir Nils Olav is there checking out the soldiers too, oh look, he has a fish, not a hot dog but the wee soldier seems to be enjoying his.

This page runs opposite the previous picture with the children at the Palace. The text will be in Norwegian on the first section, English on lower section. (The paint is still wet on paper, hence wibbly wobbly background...)

 

First ideas for the cover, maybe some soldiers and characters along the bottom too, might whizz it up a bit..
