Absolutely thrilled to have won the Eilis Dillon award for a First Children’s Book at the CBI Book Awards . Just to say I am delighted. A great honour for the Butterfly Heart, for me and, I think, for Zambia.
Here is a pic of the certificate and the lovely trophy (which one of my daughters reckons would make a good weapon….?) Mega thanks to everyone – especially my extended family!
Trophy and beautiful window (not legible I know)
