Earlier this week I received some wonderful news. Musiville was an award-winning finalist in the Book Excellence Awards, in the Children’s FictionΒ category. Check out the list of winners and my feature page on their site!
Musiville
A group of animals has evolved into musical instruments and have formed their own little village: Musiville. When everyone starts playing their own tune, however, an invader starts tearing down their buildings. Who can save Musiville from this unexpected threat?
What Readers Say:
“Should be required reading for politicians and musicians alike”
“Hugely imaginative, beautifully illustrated”
“Jalina (5 yo) loves Musiville. She’s decided she wants to learn to play a musical instrument, but doesn’t know which one yet.”

Congrats!
Thanks! It’s been a while since its publication, and I was starting to get worried that it would win no awards π
Always a fear. π This goes in the trophy cabinet with the others, right?
It’s already there π
Strangely enough, they ask for $150 if you want to use the medallion on your book cover, which is money I haven’t got at the moment. So, it just went into the cabinet and on the book description.
Weird. Never heard of something like that. Did you have to pay to get into the competition?
Yep.
Very good!
Thank you π
And I already own a print copy! Congratulations, Nicholas!
Aw you, thank you!!! π
