O'Brien Press/Children's Books Ireland Design-A-Cover Competition

We are delighted, in association with Children's Books Ireland , to announce the winner of the 2010 Design-A-Cover competition, part of the hugely-successful Children's Book Festival: Adina McNulty from Ballina, Co Mayo.

A brand new edition of Michael Scott's werewolf mystery October Moon is due for publication in spring 2011 and we asked Ireland's young artists to create a brand new cover: you can see Adina's original entry and all the runners-up here.
