I'm sure you've all heard of the post of Poet Laureate... but how many of you know about the role of Children's Laureate? Launched in 1999 there have been 5 post-holders to date, each in post for two years. Quentin Blake came first, followed by Anne Fine, Michael Morpurgo, Jacqueline Wilson and Michael Rosen is the current Children's Laureate.
The announcement was made today of who will be the 6th Children's Laureate and it is... author and illustrator Anthony Browne. His books include Through the Magic Mirror, Voices in the Park and Silly Billy.
