Huge congratulations to Canadian author Kenneth Oppel for winning the 2012 Hampshire Book Award. His book HALF BROTHER is the story of Ben Tomlin, whose research-scientist parents bring home a baby chimp to raise as a human child.
The final vote took place today, with dozens of Hampshire schools sending representatives from Year 8. Many thanks to all those who voted for OUTLAW – it came third in the end, behind HALF BROTHER and LA Weatherly’s supernatural romance ANGEL.
