Our First Online Ceremony!


This year the Surrey Libraries' Children’s Book Award has gone online – with its first ever ‘virtual ceremony’!

Despite the current closure of schools, the participating Champion schools have still been busy reading and voting for their favourite titles. Take a look at our online awards ceremony below!

The ceremony features work from our 10 Champion schools, participating library Chatterbooks groups, as well as videos from our shortlisted authors, and - most importantly - the announcement of the winner of this year’s award!

So have a watch, and then scroll down to congratulate the winner with us!



Have you watched? Then join us in saying a huge congratulations to...

Claire Barker and 'Picklewitch and Jack'! 


Thank you all for getting involved with the Surrey Libraries Children's Book Award for our 10th year! Even though this has been a bit of a different experience for us all, we hope you've enjoyed reading and talking about the books as much as we have!

We hope you'll join us again next year!
