Fantastic News! Over the weekend in the UK, at a glittering awards ceremony held at the Guardian, Mal Peet was announced as the winner of the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize for his brilliant novel Exposure.

Mal was presented with his award by last years winner, our very own Patrick Ness, making it a truly Walker affair.

A great achievement and very well deserved, I am sure you will all join me in congratulating Mal on his continued success!

Also, congratulations to Averil and everyone who has worked so hard on this book in-house!
