North & South sea story competition for young readers

Over this summer, North & South and Libro International will be running a competition for school-age writers, inspired by the November release of Out on the Water: Twelve Tales of the Sea, by Tessa Duder with illustrations by Bruce Potter.

Young storytellers aged 15 and under are invited to submit stories based around the sea (or lakes, for those living inland) of up to 1000 words, for a chance to win a school visit and writing advice by Tessa, along with signed copies of Out on the Water.

The deadline for entries is 16 February 2015.
