HRP Publishing Services: Dutch Editing Excellence

Dutch Editing Excellence

Our editors can really make a change

Editing and project management

We have extensive experience editing children’s books, magazines and specials — both on paper and online. When a project requires a little bit more than our own expertise, we hire in skilled freelancers to lend us a hand.

Copywriting

Additionally, as a packager we take commissions to develop completely new series or specials for the Netherlands, and we write and/or edit children’s specials, activity books, magazines, apps and websites.

Translation and localization

In recent years, we have translated over 400 popular children’s titles into Dutch, and at least as many magazines. Our speciality is translating and localizing TV-related publications. If you wish, we can also do the formatting.

Online

At the start of 2013 we launched the first-ever online platform for Dutch children’s books. HRP has been closely involved in the creation of this platform, and of other innovative digital projects.

Some or our clients are quite a character

This is what they say about us

HRP is a packager I can trust – they are very friendly people who always deliver on time. In addition, they are quick to offer creative solutions when we need them.

JOE HAWKES, EAGLEMOSS

Boekenwolk, the first-ever site to lend out digital children’s books, was developed in two years. It works simply. (…) Boekenwolk is a fantastic idea and easy to read.

ANNEMARIE TERHELL, KIDSWEEK

It is always a pleasure working with HRP. They are professional, accurate and efficient. They really know how to handle our projects. I often say that I wish there were professionals like HRP in each country we publish our collections!

MIRIAM BUENAVENTURA BRUGAL, RBA COLECCIONABLES

Rikky Schrever has done many things for us, including project management for the Dolfinarium animal book. She is creative, communicative, precise, makes a good contribution and can work within a pre-defined budget.

We are HRP Publishing Services, nice to meet you!

Rikky
Project manager

Rikky Schrever, packager of children’s books and magazines, founded HRP Publishing Services in early 2007. Rikky’s specialism is online and offline content for children. A magical moment in her career was a fleeting yet inspiring meeting with Richard Branson.

Rob
Designer

Where would we be without our heroic designer? Rob is unsurpassed in his ability to transform an idea or sketch into a full-fledged book, amazing magazine or cool colour special. He can read and write with Illustrator and InDesign and is amazingly quick to boot!

Marcella
Editor

Our website builder and system manager Lars ensures that everything in and around our warehouse works. By ‘everything’, we mean everything with a plug, USB port or two wheels! With his stories and strong coffee – he’s an amateur barista – Lars can keep us up until the small hours.

Lars
Website builder

Marcella dots the i’s and crosses the t’s – literally! She is a friendly (strict!) editor with a trained eye for text corrections. She can also effortlessly give stories a touch of magic. But what we admire most about her is that she’s normally finished her work before the rest of us have even started!
