GLOBAL is longlisted for the Wainwright Prize 2024!

Absolutely delighted and honoured to learn that our graphic novel, GLOBAL, about the dangers of climate change and its effects on young people around the globe has been longlisted for the prestigious Wainwright Prize 2024 for Children’s Writing about nature or conservation. We couldn’t be more thrilled to be included on such an amazing and special list.

“The prize was created in Alfred Wainwright’s name to showcase the growing genre of nature-writing in publishing and to celebrate and encourage exploration of the outdoors to all readers. It was initially conceived in 2013 by Frances Lincoln, publishers of Alfred Wainwright’s famous walking guides. It has been administered ever since by the independent Literary Marketing Agency; Agile.

The Wainwright Prize is approaching its second decade amidst ongoing conversations around our environment – reflected in the continued growth in the publishing of nature and conservation writing – The Wainwright Prize’s role in amplifying these conversations is as urgent as ever. With a new government now in office, The Wainwright Prize hopes to provide a platform to bring many of the issues covered in the longlist to the forefront of political discourse.”
