We're so excited to announce that Oliver Jeffers and Bruce Ingman have made it on to the Red House Children's Book Awards shortlist! The shortlist is divided into three categories and in the youngest group - books for younger children - the nominations include The Day the Crayons Quit by Oliver Jeffers and Drew Daywalt (HarperCollins) and Go to Sleep or I Let Loose The Leopard by Bruce Ingman and Steve Cole (Jonathan Cape), and That Is Not a Good Idea by Mo Willems (Walker). The Red House awards are coordinated by the Federation of Children’s Book Groups (FCBG) and are the only national book award voted for solely by children, who can make their choices until 15th January on the www.rhcba.co.uk website! The category winners and one overall winner of the best children’s book published will be announced at an awards ceremony at the Southbank centre in London on the 21st February 2015.
