More than 200 children from ten schools across the UK have decided … The Blue Peter Book Awards for 2015 have been announced.
Hugest congratulations to Pamela Butchart & Andy Seed.
The short list was chosen by a panel of judges including Liz Pichon, Michael de Souza, The Bookseller journalist Anna James, and non-voting chair of judges, Blue Peter editor Ewan Vinnicombe. Then it was handed over to the children themselves, who had a pretty tough job!
Best Story
The Spy Who Loved School Dinners by Pamela Butchart, illustrated by Thomas Flintham. A great, funny chapter book from Nosy Crow.

The Silly Book of Side Splitting Stuff by Andy Seed, illustrated by Scott Garrett. Bursting with lists, facts, jokes and funny true stories all about silly people, silly animals, silly inventions, silly names … this is one of those books you wander around the house calling out sentences beginning with ‘Did you know …. ?’
