The royal court's press release about Madeleine's children's book.
When Princess Madeleine makes debut with a children's book, it is with a theme that through her work with the World Childhood Foundation has come to engage her strongly: children's rights.
The book "Stella och hemligheten" will be published in the beginning of June by Bonnier Carlsen in cooperation with World Childhood Foundation. Madeleine has written the book together with Karini Gustafson-Teixeira and Marie Oskarsson. Madeleine and Karini are behind the idea. Karini works with Madeleine at World Childhood Foundation.

Margareta Thorgren said to Expressen that Madeleine has had ideas to the book many years. The book tells about integrity, self-esteem and trust. It is difficult to write to children about such a difficult things, so it has taken many years.
On the cover of the book Madeleine uses name "Madeleine Bernadotte".

The idea of this book is very similar to what Generation Pep had with its book "Sagasagor: Fiffiga kroppen och finurliga knoppen" in 2017, to tell about important issues to children with a book.

[LadyFinn]

Margareta Thorgren told this morning at TV4 Nyhetsmorgon why Madeleine does not have her title on the cover, but uses the name Madeleine Bernadotte.
- It is actually a decision that is made that as soon as there is something that can bring in money, a commercial product. Then we have chosen that Princess Madeleine is there with her first and last name, says Margareta Thorgren and continues:
- And if there will be any profits from this book, then of course they should go to World Childhood Foundation and to various projects to precisely counteract violence against children and sexual abuse of children.

Margareta Thorgren to Expressen about Madeleine's arrival to Sweden
- The princess comes to Sweden herself. It's a work trip. She is here to celebrate Childhood, but she also works on the children's book which will be published later this year. But it will be a shorter visit in Sweden, considering that she has three children at home.
"Stella och hemligheten" becomes Princess Madeleine's author debut. The children's book is a collaboration with the World Childhood Foundation and now she is entering a more hectic time to get everything ready for the deadline.
- The work involves internal meetings and work on the book. In connection with a book release, which is less than half a year away, it is a lot of different issues to be decided.
But despite the fact that the trip involves a lot of work and less pleasure, Princess Madeleine looks forward to the visit to Sweden.
- Childhood's 20th anniversary is celebrated throughout the year - it will be an exciting year with important questions. The Princess's book is a collaboration on this and it is precisely Childhood's main issues that weigh extra heavily. Madeleine always looks forward to coming home to Sweden, said Margareta Thorgren.

Madeleine arrived at 09.45 the princess arrived at Executive Committee Meeting of World Childhood Foundation at the foundation's head office in Vasastan, Stockholm. There she greeted the photographers good morning and half an hour later Queen Silvia also appeared outside the office.
The reason for the Queen's delay was the chaotic traffic situation in Stockholm's inner city on Thursday, with trapped underground lines and withdrawn buses.
Outside the office, she was received by Childhood Foundation Secretary General Paula Guillet de Monthoux.

Georg Jensen has chosen to recreate Queen Silvia's unique Easter Tablecloth - which she was with and designed herself.
The Danish design company supports Childhood, in their work against sexual abuse of children, and now sells the Queen's tablecloth in their web shop. The tablecloth costs SEK 1985 and of each sold tablecloth, SEK 1000 goes to Childhood's work.
Silvia has thus decided to lend the design from her personal Easter Tablecloth, which was woven for the occasion of her 60th birthday. Silvia designed the tablecloth together with the Danish designer Diana Holstein. In connection with the 60th anniversary, in 2003, also made a "normal" tablecloth and a Christmas tablecloth. The Easter tablecloth is of course also adorned with the queen's monogram.

Queen Silvia receives The Karl Kübel Prize

Die Karl Kübel Stiftung für Kind und Familie delivers this year the Karl Kübel Prize to Queen Silvia of Sweden. The native of Heidelberg will receive the prize worth 25,000 euros for her outstanding commitment to the protection of children. The prize money goes to her foundation "World Childhood Foundation". The Karl Kübel Foundation, which promotes children and parents around the world in order to give them a fair chance for education and a life of dignity and freedom, awards the prize on 6 September 2019 in Bensheim.
The day of the award ceremony is also the 110th birthday of the founder Karl Kübel (1909-2006). Like Queen Silvia, it was close to his heart today that children can grow up well protected, far from neglect and violence. "We are very pleased that Her Majesty can accept the award on this special day for us", says Daniela Kobelt Neuhaus from the board of the Karl Kübel Foundation.
"Her Majesty Queen Silvia of Sweden has been working for children worldwide for many years in an extraordinary way. With her World Childhood Foundation, she is fighting against the exploitation and neglect of children, against mistreatment and abuse as well as for better living conditions for girls and boys", says Kobelt Neuhaus, explaining the Foundation's decision. "This perfectly complements the work of our foundation. Many of our projects in developing countries are working against the exploitation, violence and abuse of children to give them a better future. In Germany too, we work preventively in this area by offering low-threshold offers for familiesdevelop and implement them with cooperation partners. For example, in the area of ​​early aid, the foundation is involved in the qualification of family midwives who advise parents and anticipate and reduce potential risks. "
With her foundation, founded in 1999, Queen Silvia is also committed to preventive measures and educating society in order to reduce the abuse and exploitation of children. Childhood is committed to empowering vulnerable children to become self-confident and responsible individuals through abuse.
"I am very happy about the award. The Karl Kübel Prize is a nice recognition for all employees of my foundation. The tribute emphasizes the importance of advocating for children who have experienced violence and abuse and persistently struggling to help these children", says Queen Silvia.
