Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Worldwide Press Releases

Children in Need Story Collection


A very special collection of original fiction by some of the best children's writers in Britain today will be released by Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Worldwide on 16th September 2002, in aid of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Children in Need Appeal.


All stories are previously unpublished and have been generously contributed, free of charge, to help the charity in its work to improve the lives and prospects of children and young people living in the UK who have experienced hardships, difficulties or disadvantages of some kind.


Like the hugely popular Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Children in Need telethon, now in its 23rd year, the book contains unique gems that promise to appeal to all our emotions. The writers thrill, challenge and entertain as they provoke thought, tears and laughter. The settings, past, present or future, range from the familiar, sometimes a little too close to home, to the fantastic. There are thieves to catch, pets to cherish and keep us amused, mysteries and problems to solve, dreams to believe in and hours of entertainment for readers opening this treasure-trove of stories.


Contributing authors are Jacqueline Wilson, Allan Ahlberg, Jean Ure, Berlie Doherty, Stephen Law, David Almond, Philippa Pearce, Anthony Horowitz, Martin Waddell, Malorie Blackman, Robert Swindells and Jeremy Strong.


Notes to Editors:
The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Children in Need Appeal will take place on November 15 2002. For information regarding the charity, please call Jenny Cohen on 0208 576 0876.
