These black and white illustrations are shown together for the first time and give each story another dimension and are full of surprises, just like the stories!
A princess finds her freedom in becoming a prince; Viking ships carry future kings to their destiny; a coastal town miraculously survives a flood of waves three metres high and a mermaid's laugh brings fortune to a fisherman... explore the stories of the illustrations with Svend-Erik at a special launch event on Sunday 9 Feb.
