Story

A new dawn lights up the sky in 2021. A new hope.

It is time for a new wave of Humbert books to travel forth.

You may remember that Humbert first showed up at every Children’s Hospice in the UK for Christmas 2016. Then along came international possibilities and the book was translated into German, Spanish and Croatian. And a new Kickstarter was born to translate this wee book into Norwegian, Swedish, French, Portugese, Danish, Hungarian and distribute the books to Children's Hospices, Hospitals and other relevant places in the various countries. Recently, a Dutch version has become available too.

Then a Danish publisher (Superlux) decided that it was time to take Humbert up and make it available to the public. A German publisher (Der Erzahlverlag) did the same, and a website was born (http://www.humbertbear.com).

Then, this year, India has come into it own and has doubled the number of languages it wants to have printed, as it's been translated into 7 different Indian languages (Urdu , Hindi , Punjabi , Bengali, Kannada, Tamil, Gujarati), so it is high time for another crowdfunder to get its skates on so it will get to Children's Hospices, charities and hospitals around the world.

So this is the ambition for Easter 2021!
