The first ever Booktrust Best Book Awards, in partnership with Amazon Kindle and taking place today (2 July) in London, celebrate the best books for babies, children and teenagers as voted for by school pupils.
The awards have been organised to coincide with the Booktrust’s Children’s Book Week, 30 June-4 July, an annual celebration of reading for pleasure for children.
A shortlist for each category was compiled by a group of judges (pictured-left to right) from literature and children’s television, including Great British Bake Off Star Mel Giedroyc, author and presenter Cerrie Burnell, former Apprentice winner Tom Pellerau and TV presenter Helen Skelton.
