Overview

The Stichting CPNB has released weekly bestseller rankings for the Netherlands in August 2026.

In week 34, Allen Levi’s ‘Theo in Golden’ held the number one position. A notable development was the debut of Clarissa Pinkola Estés’s ‘De ontembare vrouw’ (Women Who Run with the Wolves) on the Bestseller 60 list for the first time in thirty years.

By week 35, the top of the list shifted, with Sanne van Arnhem’s ‘Jemig, wat ben ik enig!’ reaching number one as the highest-ranking new entry. Hanneke de Zoete’s ‘De Zoete Zusjes stelen de show’ entered the top three, coinciding with the 2026 Children’s Book Week theme, ‘Spot aan!’.
