Carnegie Medal Chat and Predictions

We are joined by Alison Jewitt a teacher from South London who leads a Carnegie Shadowing Group at her school and Sophia Bower a school librarian from Durham who is a Carnegie judge this year. We talk about shadowing groups and then all of the books on the Carnegie Medal for Writing shortlist. Sophia then hides while the rest of us make our predictions about who wins - we were completely wrong last year, can we do better this year?Carnegie Medal Short Listed BooksAll That it Ever Meant, Blessing MusaririGlasgow Boys, Margaret McDonaldKing of Nothing, Nathanael LessoreLittle Bang, Kelly McCaughrainPlay, Luke PalmerThe Final Year, Matt GoodfellowThe Things we Leave Behind, Clare FurnissTreacle Town, Brian ConaghanSend us a message
