Before we close the doors for the last time on Mr. Ripley's Enchanted Books, we like to take the opportunity to thank you all for the support you have shown us in the last twelve years or so.

There are so many fabulous illustrators working on children's books it is such a hard choice. I am sad to hear this is your last competition. Thanks for highlighting the illustrators.
