A Falmouth-based author has scooped a national award for his books designed to help develop child’s speech, language and early literacy skills.
Craig Green, of the Clickety Books series, won the Gold Medal in the practical pre-School category and the Silver Medal in the primary teacher update category at The Practical Pre-School and Primary Teacher Update Awards recently.
The series received a real boost when celebrity voice artists Rik Mayall and Catherine Tate agreed to narrate the books for their accompanying CDs, while Camborne-based designer Sarah-Leigh Wills created the illustrations.
Mr Green said he was “absolutely thrilled” with the awards and praised the Clickety team for all their hard work. “Everyone delivered their own magic,” he said.
