Today we travelled to the Grand Central Hotel in Glasgow to attend the Scottish Children’s Book Awards 2016. The authors of the three short-listed books in the Bookbug category of the awards read excerpts from their books whilst the illustrators demonstrated their artistic talents.<\/p>\n

Over 30,000 children voted for their favourite book. There was great excitement as the winner was announced ……<\/p>\n

“Mouse’s First Night at Moonlight School” by Simon Puttock and Ali Pye.<\/p>\n

After the ceremony we were lucky enough to meet the authors who signed copies of their books for us.<\/p>\n

A fantastic experience!<\/p>\n
