BookTrust Story Time Prize

Book Trust Storytime is ready to roll out in Libraries across Bradford this month! Help the library staff choose a winner and take part in the judging panel for the Book Trust Story Time Prize!

The following five books will be read at libraries throughout November and early December. This is your chance to help choose a winner and collect some lovely incentive booklets and stickers along the way. We’ll also be making some great crafty makes at our sessions too!

The five books are:

• Look Out! Hungry Snake written and illustrated by Paul Delaney (Kumusha Books)
• Ten Little Ducklings written by Lucy Rowland and illustrated by Aki (Bloomsbury)
• Whisper, Shout: Let it Out! written by Madhvi Ramani and illustrated by Anuska Allepuz (Two Hoots)
• Into the Wild written and illustrated by Thomas Docherty (Oxford)
• Roarr! written by Sam Taplin and illustrated by Ailie Busby (Usborne)

An expert panel chose the shortlisted books with insights from librarians and families, and the nominees face a public vote from children, families and librarians for the £5,000 prize.
