Huge congratulations to all of our authors and illustrators who have been shortlisted for the @carnegiemedals.bsky.social for Writing and Illustration, announced this afternoon at The London Book Fair - we’re thrilled! #Carnegies25 #LBF25
Book cover illustrated by David Dean of Lesley Parr’s MG book “Fallout”. Retro 80s cover design is a music record, plus a tough teen boy in cool jacket & shooting target t-shirt, a girl wearing protest badges & holding leaflets and a carnival float showing peace signs.
Read a great #KidLitUK book today - Lesley Parr’s Fallout! Set in Wales in 1980 (so historical - sorry!), it’s a gripping, moving story of resilience, labels, loyalty, friendship, difficult families, small towns & deciding who you want to be. Absolutely deserves its place on #Carnegies25 longlist
We’re very excited about the longlists #Carnegies25 #ReadingForPleasure
I get to read so many amazing books every year that every time a longlist comes out I want to shout about A ZILLION of them. And I'm very lucky to count some of these wonderful creators as my friends so that makes me EXTRA happy for them. #Carnegies25 #KidLitUK
Thrilled to see Matt Goodfellow's The Final Year, The Wrong Shoes by @tompercival.bsky.social, Fallout by @lesleyparr.bsky.social, Nathanael Lessore's King of Nothing, Danielle Jawando's If My Words Had Wings, Luke Palmer's Play and more in the #Carnegies25 longlist. Incredible books.
Absolutely buzzing that HomeBody by Theo Parish has been longlisted on the illustration list for #Carnegies25! One of my favourite ever books.
Not everything in the world is gloom and doom! The long-lists for the @carnegiemedals.bsky.social - the oldest (& most prestigious) awards for written & illustrated works for young readers were announced today. #carnegies25
