CITV

A massive Thank You to everyone who has shared their stories this year!
You are amazing!
We are now checking all your entries and within the next few weeks we will begin the judging process.
Keep popping back here and on our social media sites to get the low down on how the judging is going.
Fingers crossed you'll be one of our lucky finalists.

Once we have registered all your entries they will be passed to our squad of judges -including authors, tv producers, animators and...
Judge Rinder himself!
They will read through all your entries and select three stories in each age category as our finalists.

The final four winning stories are then chosen via an on-line vote.

If you're a winner, you'll come to CITV to meet and work with the Marvellous Michael Rosen and the Masterful Voice Artist Marc Silk.

You'll get to record your own voice over and also guide the animators in bringing your story to life.

We can't wait!

Need a bit of inspiration to get started? check out these hints & tips videos!

This year, along with Michael Rosen, we have enlisted the help of Past Winners to spread the word about how great Sharing Stories can be and what it actually feels like to have your story, your characters turned into an animation and shown on the Telly!

The impact of Share a Story continues beyond the competition itself too as past winner Leah's mum can explain.

We also have fabulous feedback from past winners
Lucy, Matthew, Heidi, Serafina, Hannah
and Harry (with Steve the duck!),
who would all encourage you to GIVE IT A GO!
