It’s been a while since our last blog post, so we thought we would update you on some of the exciting things that have been happening at Unuhi HQ in the last months.
(*Let us know what expressions you use in your language to say that you’ve been working hard!)
1. We’ve launched our new story writing competition (deadline: 30 June 2020)
We are inviting adults all over the world to submit a short children’s story of just 225 words to us (15 words x 15 pages). The winning entry will receive £100 and will be professionally illustrated and translated into 20 languages, to be published on our lovely Unuhi app! More details at https://unuhi.com/june-2020-story-competition/.
You still have plenty of time to write and submit your story, so sharpen your pencils and fire up your laptops! ✏
2. We’ve been working on new books to be launched in summer 2020
We’ve listened to our fans and have been working hard on new books to be launched in summer 2020. As requested, we will focus on fairy tales and fables this time, so watch this space! Our illustrators are still hard at work, but we will show you some glimpses of their lovely artwork on our social media channels (subscribe below).
The books will be published in 20 languages, of course: English, Arabic, Danish, Dutch, Filipino, Finnish, French, German, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin (Simplified), Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (European), Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, and Thai. 📚
3. We have increased our social media presence AND we are planning a newsletter

4. We’re already working on new story ideas
