I knew that the foreign rights to The Big Book of Socks had been sold, but I thought it was to a German publisher. That happened a year ago or so, and I'd never heard anything else about the sale, so I mostly forgot about it. Until yesterday.

Hauskuus hämmästys kotona lähettää postissa

A German publisher may have bought the rights, but a firm in Helsinki published it. Is this not the coolest thing ever? It's my first foreign edition, and I am still grinning from ear to ear.
It looks great on the Kathleen Taylor shelf.
Yep- still grinning...

To cool, to cool, too cool!! I can imagine how you feel, probably how I do knowing that my art work is in other countries. :)
