The comic was originally drawn in English and translated back to Finnish, according to Korhonen. Now it's published in many other languages such as Japanese, Korean and Chinese.

Her next book will be centered around Finnish proverbs and sayings, which she said are largely influenced by the country's fondness for nature and animals.
