But do you know what’s crazy? His mum tells me that he’s really not confident about his drawing. Imagine that?! He’s an actual living, walking, talking, drawing AMAZO-SAURUS and he doesn’t even know it. I wrote Space Bugs and Selfies! to help remind children to be confident about being themselves, no matter what anyone else says. I want every Manu in the world to KNOW they CAN do it, whatever it is they want to do.
WELL DONE MANU!
Up-to-5s winner
The up-to5s winner is a little girl called Marja. I love her picture. She took the time, not only to draw a fabulous picture of Lily, with a lovely rabbit and a fox, but she ALSO drew the sound waves, to show Lily was listening to the animals.
Yeah.
That’s right.
She’s 5 and she’s thinking about sound waves. AND finding a way to represent them on paper. AT FIVE. Good gravy, I think we might have

What a fantastic effort! Well done Marja. And here she is with her prizes – a signed book, with a special message just for her and LOADS of colouring pens, for more fantastic flights of imagination! I’m looking forward to seeing a lot more fabulous artwork from her soon!
A very worthy winner!
All the pictures were fantastic. But these two were my favourites.
