The story the Boston family likes the best will win a copy of the new Faber Children’s edition of ‘The Children of Green Knowe,’ which is a hardback facsimile of the original 1954 publication – an essential for anyone to whom Green Knowe is special. The image shows a sneak preview of the book’s beautiful green and gold cover.
