The Lollies 2018 - Winner of the Best Laugh Out Loud Book for 6-8 year olds
This is the fourth in the bestselling and super-funny Pig series, perfect for fans of Chicken Run or Wallace and Gromit. A madcap treat with wacky cartoons and a quirky hero.
The (big, fat, totally bonkers) Diary of Pig Synopsis
I is Pig. This is my diary and I doubts you will believe any of it. In fact, if you is the kind of farmer what finds it hard to believe unbelievable stuff, you should put it down RIGHT NOW. I wouldn't blame you. If I was reading it I would be like, 'Don't be silly! Stuff like this would never happen to a pig, it's totally impossible.' But it's not. Just ask Duck, or Cow, or Ki-Ki, or Rusty. They'd all tell you. It's all 1000% true and 10,000% BONKERS!
Head Lollies Judge Michael Rosen said: “It’s fantastic to see the huge engagement from schools and children for the Lollies. The books that children have chosen are all worthy winners but even more importantly, it’s provided a focus for children to read for pleasure and discover the joy that funny books can bring.”
Rachel Partridge, Group Marketing Director, Scholastic UK said: “We’re delighted to see the huge engagement from schools and children for the Lollies. We made the decision to live stream the ceremony from a school this year after so many teachers told us that their pupils would love to attend the awards. This way we are ensuring that as many children as possible can join in and share in a fabulous moment to celebrate the best children’s books and the authors and illustrators who create them.”
