Link Du Jour: New Lord of the Flies Cover Designed by Teen
Add it to the list of things that put my Covering the Newbery redos to shame. Last fall, the Guardian put out a call in the UK for kids ages 13-16 to design a cover for the educational edition of the classic Lord of the Flies. The entries came in and a winner has been selected. Click here, or the image below to see the champ and a gallery of gorgeous runners-up. What a cool idea.
