Is your child's work going to be in a Young Writer's book?

[luciam]

This is for anyone who has received a letter from an organisation called Young Writers in respect of a writing competition entered by their child as part of their homework. I know that at least one local primary school has participated recently.

The letter congratulates you on the fact that your child's work has been selected for publication and encloses a certificate of achievement for the child. And guess what? For the special price of only ?15.99 per copy, you can pre-order as many copies of the book (an A5, softback booklet) as you like.

Please don't give these people your money. Do a google search for Young Writers and you will find numerous stories about this company or its previous incarnations- the last trading company was wound up and the same people now operate under the name of Bonacia Limited.
