Last night Richard and Judy presented the Best Kids Books award show to try and find the best books for children of all ages. I was watching with interest because 2 children I teach were appearing on it, talking about books for fluent readers. The group, chosen from book groups all over Sheffield had to read 4 books and decide which ones they liked best. They also had quick interviews with Jacqueline Wilson, Anthony Horowitz and Phillip Pullman. In the video, Jacqueline Wilson talks about her favourite character and where she gets her ideas from.
There is also a forum where you can discuss books with other kids who love reading.This is part of Channel 4's Lost for words season, where their aim is to get kids reading. You can watch celebrities talking about their favourite books on the website. Here, Chris O'Dowd from the hilarious IT Crowd reads from Winnie-the-Pooh.
