1st Prize to Sofia T for ‘Judah the Banana’

It is short, sharp, snappy and wild. We love every character in it and how the facial expressions enhance the moment. Crazy Monkey is an icon.

Joint 2nd Prizes go to Arabella and Charlotte for ‘The Story of Love’ and Amal for ‘The Fashion Fight’

Arabella and Charlotte’s poem was a simple idea executed with whimsical brilliance. We want to go to the ‘weird restaurant’ and meet the ‘weird waitress’!

Amal’s story has everything: action, fashionistas and power struggles. So easy to read and such a clear narrative arc. The villains were stylish, selfish and so, so funny.

3rd Prize to Lita

It is so colourful, detailed and has collaged feathers and shiny paper decorating it. It has a real understanding of how to set out and structure a story as it moves through different places and scenes.

Special mention to Aliya and Matilda for ‘The Murder Mystery’

A gripping story with unique artwork. We love the gruesome pictures and the most memorable line of the whole competition…. “Help! I’m dead!”
