Booktrust invites entries from publishers for The Blue Peter Book Awards 2014, which will celebrate children’s books published in the last year in two categories: Best Story and Best Book with Facts.

There will be three shortlisted books for each award chosen by our panel of judges and announced on Blue Peter in December 2013. The 2014 judging panel will be announced in due course.

Approximately 200 children from 10 schools across the UK will then read the shortlisted books and vote for their favourites in each category. The two winning books will be announced on the Blue Peter programme scheduled for World Book Day on 6 March 2014.
