Can I get a free copy of your book? To use in a giveaway/in exchange for a review on my blog or coloring group/competitions or other good causes?

If you want a Swedish book, get in contact with Pagina/Printworks at: info@pagina.se
If you want an english book you have to get in contact with Gibbs Smith and so on. I get ALOT of messages about free books and Its simply not possible for me to send to all who is asking so please get in contact with the publishers instead. The responsible publishers can be found above.
There is an issue with my book that I have bought, something wrong with the printing/paper/cover etc. What can I do?
If your book has been damaged in shipping, you must contact the store you bought the book in and ask for an exchange. If there is something wrong with the actual printing, paper etc. contact the responsible publisher to report the issue and they will help you out. You can see a list of them above.
If there is a problem with the Swedish edition books contact: info@pagina.se
Im a designer with a small business, can I use your artwork for reproduction on my own products/art, prints on clothing, etc?
Can I use the pages or postcards from your books to color and sell in my webshop/art fair etc.?
No, Its not allowed to use my illustrations for products/art that is produced to be sold. And you can not color and sell pages from my my books. You can color the pages and do whatever you like with them for you own personal use, but you can't sell them to make a profit.
What paper is used in the translated books, is it the same as the Swedish ones?
Since many publishers use different papers in their books its hard for me to keep track of them all so to get full info about the paper used in the different translations please contact the responsible publisher, see above for info.
The Swedish book has a hard cover and great paper quality, why doesn't all the translated books look the same as the Swedish book? Some translations have a soft cover and the paper quality isn't the same, even the color on the cover can change, how come?
Yes, there might be variations in the cover and paper quality of the translated books. My Swedish publisher, Pagina/Printworks, recommends all the translating publishers to make the books in the same quality as the Swedish one but in the end its an agreement between Pagina/Printworks and the translating publisher how the books end up. I myself don't have an active part in that process, I rely on my publisher to take care of that. If you have specific questions about the books released in your country, paper quality, retailers etc. please contact the responsible publisher in that country.
If I have bought your coloring book, is it o.k for me to make copies from it? Can I scan and upload it online?
Its ok to make copies from my books but only a small amount and only for personal use at home. You can NOT scan/photograph pages and upload online and its not O.K to print pages found online . Schools are not allowed to make copies from the books.
Do you have PDF pages for free download or for sale?
Yes I have one for the moment, a winter themed page. You can find it here!

If you live outside of Sweden but you want to order the Swedish editions of my books you can do so at Printworksmarket.

I don't have a list of retailers for all countries but get in contact with the responsible publisher if you are looking for my books and can't find them online.
