English writer + Norwegian illustrator = magic

Torbjørn the Polar Bear

What happens when an English writer and a Norwegian illustrator team up to create a story on polar bears, friendship, family and identity?

In Torbjørn the Polar Bear children will experience a funny and yet heart-warming tale of a young polar bear discovering a few secrets in his family and finding his own identity. Torbjørn the Polar Bear is about identity, about not fitting in, and perhaps about the fact we're all unique?

Titus Kodzoman was born in England in 1965 and has lived in Norway for the past few years. Torbjørn is his second published book.

Anne Angelshaug is from Jølster and has a degree in illustration from Falmouth College of Arts in Cornwall. She has also participated in several exhibitions.
