I’ve tried to write this post a hundred times but I can’t put it into words. Somehow #Greenwild actually went and won the @Waterstones Children’s Book Prize 2024. Thank you, booksellers. This win is the honour of my life 💚🌿. @MacmillanKidsUK .@elisaupsidedown
And our overall winner is. Greenwild by @PariThomson! A debut that enchanted our booksellers with its sweeping escapism; a timeless fantasy tale of friendship, mystery, and the magic and beauty in nature (illustration by @elisaupsidedown): #WCBP24
