We Don’t Live Here

Henrik Wallnäs & Joanna Hellgren

Moving is a major thing. To leave something familiar for something else. How will life turn out? Two kids are with their dad in a fully packed car driving towards the new and unknown. They stop
along the way, play, and look at the view.

But they don’t live here. So where do they live? Big brother makes sure little brother falls asleep peacefully – maybe things will turn out okay. But what will happen when they get there?

A poetic and beautiful yet accessible story about a familiar theme for many. Henrik Wallnäs is an author and librarian. He made his debut in 2016 with Åka buss, which was August Prize nominated the same year. Joanna Hellgren is an illustrator and cartoonist, who has received numerous awards and nominations for her work.
