How to get involved


There will be five books and we need your help to choose the winner. If you are a primary school then read on, this is how it works

  1. The children read the 5 books by the end of the Summer half term in 2025 and then vote on them. 
  2. There is no limit on the number of children reading and voting, but there are limited spaces at the Award Ceremony in June.
  3. Get hold of as many copies as you need so each child has time to read the book. We have found that if everyone reads the same book at the same time then this makes for more interesting discussions, also demand for those books will be high as people realise this is important. Newt Books are offering a 30% discount on LBBA orders, get in touch to find out more.
  4. Start reading! You decide how to do this, as in the point above it makes sense to read them all together and then discuss them all together. How this might work will be different for everyone  - perhaps a lunch time club, an after school zoom call, a breakfast meeting... 
  5. Collectively rank the books, either come to a consensus or vote individually and total the scores. 
  6. Go to the voting page and submit your results!
  7. We will hopefully hold a live event again to announce the winner and all children who have voted will be able to come along and hear from the author directly!
