Booktrust Teenage Prize
The Booktrust Teenage Prize was an annual award in the United Kingdom that celebrated outstanding literature for young adults. Established in 2003, it aimed to recognize the best books published for teenagers, encouraging reading and promoting authors who write for this age group. The prize was awarded based on the quality of writing, originality, and the book's appeal to teenage readers.
The award was open to all genres, including fiction and non-fiction, and was judged by a panel of experts in children's literature. Notable winners included authors like Malorie Blackman and Patrick Ness, who gained recognition for their contributions to young adult literature. The prize was discontinued in 2015.
