It is with utter delight, I can tell you that TWITCH has been long-listed for the Wainwright Prize for Children’s writing on nature and conservation! This prize is a special one. Every year I read the shortlists and grow.
This means such a lot to me - and I’m humbled to be included. Massive congratulations to all the other long listees!
This long list features writers I respect, admire and - to be honest - fangirl over. I don't know how anyone picks a winner. I certainly couldn't.
You can find out more about the prize and the other books that are long-listed here.
KEY DATES:
The Prize shortlists will be announced on 28th July at Foyles, London.
The Prize winners will be announced live on 7th September at the London Wetlands Centre.
