2017 has been a stellar year for kids books.

During Friday 29th December 2017 the My Book Corner team, alongside some VERY special guests, will each be revealing their Best Book of 2017.

They’ll appear on this page.

Keep a close eye on Twitter, and this page, for regular updates throughout the whole day. #BestBooksof2017
