The National Literacy Trust and Oxford University Press have launched a new competition for 5-11 year olds that aims to get children buzzing about books.

It's called Your Monster Read, and runs until April 2013. The winners get the chance to meet author Ali Sparkes and receive a set of her books, as well as an e-reader and £60 of book vouchers, and further prizes from Oxford University Press. See the Reading and Writing page for more details.
