Costa Children’s Book Award

Christchurch City Libraries lists literary prize winners and links to catalogue searches, but we may not hold copies of all titles mentioned.

The Costa Book Awards are some of the most prestigious British literary awards. They were launched in 1971 as the Whitbread Literary Awards, which became the Whitbread Book Awards in 1985. Costa Coffee took over sponsorship in 2006. Winners received £5,000. The 2021 Costa Book Awards held in February 2022 was the 50th and final awards. Visit the Costa Book Awards site for more information.
