BOOKTRUST TEENAGE PRIZE 2006

Congratulations to Anthony McGowan for winning the 2006 Booktrust Teenage Prize. Thought a controversial choice by some for its irreverent style and strong language Henry Tumour tells the story of Hector Brunty, who struggles with his alter-ego, his abusive but hilariously funning talking brain-tumour Henry. You can read a review of this book in the latest edition of Carousel.
