The primary school children’s book awards scheme will see schoolkids vote on their favourite, and the winner will read it to them.
Coombe Hill Junior School headteacher Mark Clutterbuck says he wanted to start it in March but it was cancelled due to Covid-19.
However, he later realised that “above all at this time, pupils need exciting stories and a sense of community”.
A fundraiser has been set up so children from low income families can have personal copies of the books.
