 Pre school children across Nottingham are invited to vote for their favourite out of three shortlisted books!
This very special award has been running for 21 years and encourages young children to develop a love of books and reading. Last year, over 1,800 youngsters voted for their favourite book.
Families can also join in the fun by visiting their local library, sharing the books with their little ones and using the voting sheets there, or by viewing videos of the stories being read by library staff and voting for their favourite online. Voting closes 16 December.
