Hi Folks
After an absence of eight years in Liverpool we were hosted tonight by Merchant Taylor's School. Our authors at today's. Quiz were Cathy Cassidy, Victoria Campbell, Richard Knight and Jon Mayhew and they were too strong for the school teams winning by more than 20 points. The authors awarded the prizes to King's Macclesfield School A team for first place. The team comprising of Ciara, Sean, Joe and Megan defeated the second place team by one point. In second place was the Kings School Chester B and in third place was Withington Girls School. Tonight's sponsors were Walker Books, SERCO and the SLA.
It was good to be back in Liverpool

About the Kids' Lit Quiz
The Kids' Lit Quiz is an annual quiz for students aged 10 - 13 years. Teams of four students, from Year 6, 7 and 8, are asked to answer 100 questions on children's literature divided into ten categories, which vary each year. Teams work collaboratively to answer each question put to them by the New Zealand Quizmaster Wayne Mills.
A school can enter up to two teams. There are 18 regional heats in the UK. The winning team from each region competes in the National Final which in 2014 will be held at Kings' College School Wimbledon, London. The overall UK winning team will be invited to compete for the International Title in
Connecticut in the summer of 2015.
