Oh my words!

Something gorgeous and shiny came in the post today! My very own special bound copy of BBC Radio 2’s 500 Words Competition book, with all the winning stories in it!

I illustrated 10 year old Ellie Aitken’s story ‘For the last time’, a moving and devastating account of a Jewish family’s final Sabbath meal. Ellie won a silver award in the 10-13 year old category for this wonderful piece of heartfelt writing. Well done Ellie!
