Pamela Butchart and illustrator Thomas Flintham are crowned overall winners of this year’s Children’s Book Award
Pamela Butchart’s My Head Teacher Is a Vampire Rat illustrated by Thomas Flintham has just been announced as The Children’s Book Award winner 2016. The book was crowned winner of the overall prize, shortly after winning the Books for Young Readers category!
My Head Teacher Is a Vampire Rat is a zany story about a group of kids who decide that their new head teacher is a vampire. They’ve figured it out because he is quite scary, has the blinds down in his office all day and has banned garlic bread at lunch! The book is fast-paced, irreverent and full of explosive illustration.
