Reading Champions Begin Carnegie Awards Journey

Hoxton Garden Reading Champions have been perusing the books, which have been nominated for the Carnegie Book Awards 2026. The Carnegie Awards are the UK’s longest running and best-loved book awards for children and young people. The awards celebrate outstanding achievement in children’s writing and illustration. They are unique in that they are judged by children, with the Shadowers’ Choice award being voted for by children and young people.
