Lottie Saahko
Hi, I'm Lottie Saahko, a Finnish author living between Finland and London, and currently I'm writing my first middle-grade book in English, coming out in the UK in 2026!
I grew up across the world (Germany, China, Poland, Finland, and the UK). Now I write for kids like me, who feel a bit different, a bit lost, but who dream of making the world a better place. I’ve always loved nature and cared about the environment, so you’ll often find those themes at the heart of my stories and videos! 🌿
On this channel, you'll find:
- Author life vlogs
- Writing tips & routines
- Book reviews (especially children's + middle grade)
- Behind the scenes of publishing in Finland & the UK
- Finland book research trips
And maybe sometimes bits of my life with my Finnish grandpa, whose stories inspired my bestselling Finnish books.
I've published 10 books in Finland and I can't wait to see my stories in UK bookshops next year!
Come along as I make the jump from Finnish bookshelves to British ones.
