Are you a reader or a writer?

Or maybe you are both, or even an artist who creates pictures with colour and images instead of words.

Either way Junior News is for you, especially our regular readers and writers issue.

And in this one, as we promised, we are printing the first part of a story written by 10-year-old Manuel Zarb, which won him first prize in an international competition.

We think it's great and we are proud of the fact that Manuel is also a regular contributor to Junior News.

Make the front page!

You could make a start by making our front page. To reward our many readers we will occasionally be handing over the front page to you and/or your brothers and sisters, cousins and friends.

For example some of you may like drawing, the others may prefer writing. Together you could produce a great front page!

To make our front page all you have to do is send us an illustrated report on any subject you like, or gather a collection of your drawings and send them to Junior News, together with your name, age and address. You can also include photos.

If you are a competition winner...

As we told you last week, the system that held all the winners' letters no longer exists and a new one has to be set up. If your name appears as a winner this week, please be patient and wait for your letter.

Letters will go out again as soon as possible, so please do not phone, write or e-mail saying you have not received a letter. We will announce when normal service has been resumed.

Thank you for your patience.

Have a great week

Layout & design: Stefan
