DEADLINE EXTENDED - SEE BELOW!
Design a book cover
Ask your children to imagine a book they would love to write. Would it be their life story, or a fantasy adventure? A collection of their own poetry? This competition invites children to design the cover of their imaginary book.
WIN!
The Overall Winner receives gifts from Crayola, a signed book by Michael Rosen, Children’s Laureate and a £50 book token. Their school wins a £100 book token and Crayola gifts. Category Winners receive a Crayola gift and a £25 book token.
