How fabulous, so well deserved 👏👏👏👏👏

Huge congratulations to Dame Malorie Blackman and Dame Julia Donaldson! 👏

We are completely delighted to see these two former Waterstones being recognised in the King's Birthday Honours this year.

They have both done so much - and continue to do so much - to help every child discover a love of reading, and we are so grateful for their ongoing support of BookTrust.

We couldn't be happier to see that being celebrated at the highest level! ✨
