ReadingZone has launched a World Book Day competition for children and young people aged 4 -18 to make a picture book, judged by Jacqueline Wilson’s illustrator, Nick Sharratt. They want a brilliant story, told in words and pictures in up to 24 pages! You can see tips, guidelines and a template at www.ReadingZone.com.
There are some fantastic prizes, including the chance to meet a fabulous author at school, sets of books for the school library, and you’ll receive printed copies of your own picture book!
You don’t have to be brilliant at writing or a fantastic artist to make a great picture book, anyone can have a go – you just need an idea or character to start with.
The competition launched in January 2012 and we hope that as many schools and young people as possible will be able to make picture books during World Book Day. The competition will close on 14th April and the winners will be announced on www.ReadingZone.com in May 2012.
Why not have a go?
