East Sussex Children’s Book Award

East Sussex Children’s Book Award 2020

This year’s winner is:

David Ouimet
I Go Quiet

#ESCBA2020

How do you find your voice, when no one seems to be listening? A young girl struggles to make herself heard, believing she is too insignificant and misunderstood to communicate with the people in her life.

We had a great time reading all the books for the East Sussex Children’s Book Award. A librarians dream task. This week we were delighted to announce author David Ouimet a very worthy winner with ‘I go Quiet’.

Lost in the Stacks.

I am filled with nostalgia when I walk through the Children’s Store section of the rolling stacks. The Famous Five, The Chalet School, Biggles, Flambards. All those old friends meeting on the shelves.
