The award ceremony was yesterday and the winners were:

What the Ladybird Heard by Julia Donaldson, illustrated by Lydia Monks


Younger Readers 8-11 Category
Invisible Fiends: Mr Mumbles by Barry Hutchison


Older Readers 12-16 Category

I'm delighted to say we have all the titles in the Library (check SUPrimo for details.) For more information, including photos of the award ceremony hosted by Janice Forsyth, see the Scottish Book Trust site. There are also write-ups in the Edinburgh Reporter, the Bookseller and Booktrade.info and you can read illustrator Lydia Monks' blog about her day at the awards here.

PS Coverage also in the Glaswegian 3/3/11
