4/4 ...(the 'library union' which administers the awards), the Carnegies are particularly close to my heart because they're choen by librarians and 'shadowed' by children in schools. A big CONGRATULATIONS to everyone on both shortlists. @CILIPinfo @CILIPSLG

1/4 It seems fitting that a sitting Children's @UKLaureate should win the coveted Carnegie 2024, and that's exactly what @JosephACoelho has done, with his Theseus-based novel-in-verse, 'The Boy Lost in the Maze'. Incredibly, he's the first black person to win a Carnegie medal.

2/2 In return for a donation, you get a packet of sunflower seeds. I've planted mine. You can find out more at https://t.co/GoNVNgzRsa If you're an author or illustrator, I'm sure they'd be happy to accept book donations, too... but be sure to check first! @PhilipArdagh @plaa_uk

1/2 Wonderful to hear @Jb5Jane's pupil, Reuben on @BBCr4today - whom I met at the Pupil Library Assistant of the Year Awards - talking about Blooms for Books which has raised hundreds of pounds to buy books for school libraries that need them. Amazing work. @plaa_uk @CILIPSLG
