Emil Landgreen is a Danish author and illustrator who creates books for children and young people. His work combines humorous storytelling, imaginative illustrations and interactive choices, inviting readers to shape what happens next. His best-known series, “Hvad gør du?” (“What Do You Do?”), features choose-your-own-adventure stories filled with comic twists, unusual characters and multiple possible endings. Titles include “Strandet på paradisøen” (“Stranded on Paradise Island”), “Bortført af aliens” (“Abducted by Aliens”) and “Chilizombierne” (“The Chili Zombies”).
