[PubQ] Publishing/ querying a book in two languages

Now that our novel is in the querying stage, my husband and I are trying to decide what to write next. We have an idea for a middle grade book, however, we would be interested in publishing that one in both English and Norwegian. Any ideas on how to approach that? Norwegian publishing you can still submit manuscripts directly to the publishing house. If you have a foreign publisher interested in the manuscript already, would that affect/influence querying of English-speaking agents?
