Gateshead Children’s Book Award - Results
Monday, July 14th, 2008I’m delighted to announce that one of the books I wrote for Egmont’s Too Ghoul For School series - Terror In Cubicle Four - came in second place at this year’s Gateshead Children’s Book Award.
In first place was Jeremy Strong with Beware: Killer Tomatoes, and I just beat Derek Landy into third place with his superb Skulduggery Pleasant. As I’m a big fan of both of those authors, I’m delighted to be included in the top three alongside them.
Next year - Scream Street…!

That’s fantastic. Congratulations!
I loved Skulduggery Pleasant (and am embarassed to say I haven’t read yours or Jeremy Strong’s books . . . yet!).
Way to go!

Skulduggery is brilliant! Jeremy Strong writes for younger readers, and his books are great fun!
