Mr Ripley's Enchanted Books: Children's Book Cover Final Competition 2024/25 - WINNER Tomislav Tikulin
We have had another exciting children's book cover competition that has drawn to a close; this was the fifteen competition we have run in sixteen years. We would like to thank every voter and supporter, illustrator, author, and publisher who got behind our annual event. We have had another challenging time shouting about this one and making it visible. However, we've had five fabulous rounds showcasing 25 brilliant children's book covers for you to vote from. A big thank you to everyone who supported and voted for them - you have done them proud.
Last night, the FINAL came to a fantastic conclusion with a nail-biting finish and a massive amount of VOTES. We now have another excellent winner ... I'm delighted to announce that the winning book cover was illustrated by Tomislav Tikulin for The Doomsday by Kevin Moran. Published by O'Brien Press (3rd March 2025) and designed by Emma Byrne.
You can check out more of his brilliant work on his website HERE. We welcome him to the Hall of Fame featuring all the other past winners across the years (see below). Many congratulations, Tomislav!
