Children's Bookseller of the Year and Book Retailer of the Year: The Children's Bookshop, London, which "celebrates its 50th birthday this year--making it not just the longest-standing children's bookstore in the country, but old enough to be selling books to the grandchildren of its first young customers. Yet it's a shop that never seems to age, with a youthful energy for reading and its community." The Children's Bookshop is only the second independent bookshop to win the book retailer award in the award's 11-year history.
Individual Bookseller of the Year: Amanda Dunne Fulmer of Halfway Up the Stairs, Greystones, County Wicklow, Ireland. "Having joined the children's specialist five years ago after a decade in school libraries, she has worked tirelessly to get all her young customers reading for pleasure, regardless of their abilities and interests. She knows that good bookselling starts with listening, and takes the time to understand needs before recommending suitable books from an encyclopeadic knowledge of children's authors and illustrators."
