Young Judges 2007

How to be a judge for the Costa Children's Book Award

Last year we selected our judges through a competition run in First News.  Watch this space for how to become a young judge this year.

This year's young judges

Readers were asked to submit a 250-word review on the most enjoyable book they had recently read.

We're pleased to announce the two lucky winners of the competition are Amar Mann, aged 11 from Northwood in Middlesex and Isha Amin, aged 10 from Welwyn Garden City in Hertford.

Amar's winning review was of Stormbreaker by Anthony Horowitz and Isha's review was of The Prophecy of The Gems by Flavia Bujor. Well done to Isha and Amar and we look forward to seeing them on 22nd January 2008 at the awards ceremony!
