UK children have voted Anthony Horowitz’s “Skeleton Key” as the best children’s book of the year in the Red House Award. The award is the only publishing prize voted on by kids. “Around 25,000 children from all over the UK took part in judging this year through book groups organised by the Federation of Children’s Book Groups and via the award’s website. Previous winners of the award, now in its 23rd year, include Quentin Blake, Roald Dahl and JK Rowling.”
