Random House Children’s Books running story competition
Random House Children’s Books have teamed up with The Unicorn Theatre and The London Eye to launch a competition to mark the stage première of Siobhan Dowd’s award-winning children’s book, The London Eye Mystery, from March this year.
About The London Eye Mystery
When Ted and Kat watched their cousin Salim get on board the London Eye, he turned and waved before getting on. But after half an hour it landed and everyone trooped off – and no Salim. Where could he have gone? How on earth could he have disappeared into thin air? So Ted and his older sister, Kat, become sleuthing partners, since the police are having no luck. Despite their prickly relationship, they overcome their differences to follow a trail of clues across London in a desperate bid to find their cousin. And ultimately it comes down to Ted, whose brain works in its own very unique way, to find the key to the mystery. This is an unputdownable spine-tingling thriller – a race against time.
The Unicorn Theatre and Random House Children’s Books are offering the chance for fans to create their own idea for a thrilling Ted and Kat adventure. The judging panel includes Philip Pullman and DFB editor Hannah Featherstone.
First prize is a private-party capsule for up to 20 people on The London Eye, followed by a trip for up to 4 people to see a performance of The London Eye Mystery at the Unicorn Theatre, and a chance to meet the cast and Philip Pullman. Plus, a selection of books, including the complete set of Siobhan Dowd novels (A Swift Pure Cry, Bog Child, Solace of the Road and The London Eye Mystery), and signed Philip Pullman books.
The runners-up will each receive a trip for up to 4 people to see a performance of The London Eye Mystery at the Unicorn Theatre, plus a selection of Siobhan Dowd and Philip Pullman books.
