Kevin Brooks and Jon Klassen were announced as the winners of the 2014 CILIP Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Medals, the awards that authors and illustrators say that they 'most want to win'.
Brooks was awarded the CILIP Carnegie Medal for The Bunker Diary (Puffin), a fictional diary of a kidnapped boy held hostage in a bunker.
Klassen - the first Canadian to be awarded the prestigious illustration prize - won the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal for This is Not My Hat (Walker Books), which sees a thieving fish get his comeuppance.
