The Carnegies – Official Book Supplier – Giveaway

Since the Carnegies shortlists were announced earlier this month, it’s been great to see how excited pupils have been to see the shortlisted books arriving at their school, and to get reading for the shadowing process. Scholastic are proud to be the Home of Reading, and as such, we understand how important access to books are for children, and how tough it can be in practice, when school budgets are facing significant challenges.

As the Official Book Supplier for the Carnegies 2026, Scholastic will be supporting 10 schools, who may not otherwise be able to take part in shadowing, by donating free packs of the Carnegies shortlisted books. Each school selected will receive 2 packs of the Writing shortlist and 2 packs of the Illustration shortlist to share with pupils and support shadowing of the awards.*

To enter, please tell us in no more than 500 words, how the books will benefit your school.*

_{*Competition ends 30th March 2026. You can find Scholastic’s competition terms and conditions here.}
