YLR Spring 2008 Competition Winners

 
 

In our Spring 2008 edition we asked you to correctly identify the author, illustrator and title of this Kate Greenaway Medal-winning book:

A woman spends all her meagre wages as a balloon-seller on food for her pet, but when the food runs out the ungrateful pet abandonds her.  They are only reunited when a gust of wind takes the woman and her balloons on an amazing cloud-top journey to the seaside.

The correct answer is:

Mrs Cockle's Cat by Philipa Pearce.  Illustrated by Anthony Maitland.  Winner of the 1961 Kate Greenaway Medal.

The winners of the competition to win a copy of our new publication Image and Imagination are:
