HRH Princess Beatrice congratulated children’s author Chris Haughton after his “stunning blend” of storytelling and illustration won this year’s Oscar’s Book Prize.
Dublin-born Haughton, whose other books include Oh No, George! and A Bit Lost, took home the £10,000 prize, saying: “It’s an honour to be chosen as the winner for this year’s Oscar’s Book Prize, and a privilege to be held in such high regard amongst a shortlist of incredible authors and illustrators, all of whom deserve the award as much as me. This is an award that celebrates and highlights the joy that comes from children’s stories, and one I shall cherish.
