Cover competition for 7-12 year olds

Treetops version

My version adapted for Oxford Treetops

One for budding artists out there. The Times newspaper is running a competition for children aged 7-12 to design a new cover for Frances Hodgson Burnett’s classic book ‘The Secret Garden’.  The cover has to be on A4 paper without any writing – just the drawing.  Random House publishers are giving away a £100 of children’s books to the winners, £50 and £30 to the runners-up.  The deadline is July 23rd.

I’d recommend reading the book first to get the flavour of the story.  It was set in late Victorian times in a grand house in the Yorkshire countryside.

The full website address and contact details given were a bit sketchy. Try:  vintage-classics, info/thesecretgarden
