The Reader has today announced the winner of their World Book Day competition.
Ja'meelah Griffiths, aged four, has won a trip to The Reader's Storybarn for her entire reception class at St Silas C of E Primary School in Toxteth.
School children across Liverpool were asked to show The Reader what they love about their favourite book by sending in a drawing, painting or collage.
The Reader received more than 150 entries of which 30 finalists were chosen.
Ja'meelah's winning entry was a picture of the Gruffalo which the judges said made them smile.
