WE ARE BACK!

Our little booth at the Bookfair in Frankfurt was exactly 4 square meters in size. One for each rabbit and the fourth one for prospects from all over the world. And things went better than expected: out of one hundred visitors who passed our rabbit hutch, 5 discovered us. 2 % more than we hoped for.


They recognized us, stopped by, looked into the evening sun, sniffed at our two books, smiled and some even engaged in a conversation.


Claudia Gabriel from 85296 Rohrbach was the very first one who looked at “Nellie” and immediately ordered 5 pieces for her first-class bookstore.

A young female illustrator with a Japanese last name was enthusiastic about ARs “modern” artwork – and she wasn’t the only one. We had to explain to many people, who were astonished that we had only two books for our first fair presentation, that we just transformed from DM to DH and that we plan to do beautiful and good books from now on. And the three of us, we were astonished about the great number of young talented people who showed us their scripts, diploma theses and illustrations. Who knows how things will develop... it was really nice in Frankfurt.
