This is the ninth year that BGS pupils will be shadowing the Carnegie Award. We hope that you enjoy all that our website has to offer in 2008.

Congratulations to the winning author, Philip Reeve: as usual, the adult panel has proclaimed a winner very different to the choice of the teenage shadowing team.

We wonder why there are no young people involved in the selection. Isn't this a bit like running a survey of different types of catfood, by testing them on hedgehogs?
