Two titles on the TOP 5 bestsellers Catalan children’s books list on World Book Day!

 

Last Saturday, more than 300 books and roses stalls were set up again in Barcelona. Thousands took to the streets to celebrate Sant Jordi and look for new books. What a massive party!

As you know, in Catalonia we celebrate Sant Jordi by exchanging roses and books with our loved ones. It’s our Valentine’s feast and also World Book Day.

To round off the day, this year children had their say and two Combel titles made it to the top 5.

The Amazing Creepy Granny House

 

With more than 50.000 copies sold, we are currently reprinting for the 3rd time in 6 months. It has been sold to 6 languages so far: Dutch, French, Icelandic, Italian, Portuguese and Simplified Chinese.

Good news for young readers: Martí & Salomó are planning the next title for publication in February 2023.

Garfunkel Live!  , the 7th  “Bitmax & Co” title

 

“Bitmax & Co” series is something out of this world! With more than 50.000 copies sold, and 7 titles published since September 2020, it has been sold to 7 languages: Dutch, English, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian and Simplified Chinese.

 

Garfunkel Live! was launched in early April and hit the top 10 Catalan children’s bestsellers books in one week. And it is still there. Copons & Fortuny are currently working on the The Ants War to be published in September. Long live to the Forest people!
