The Waterstones Children's Book Prize is an annual award given to a work of children's literature published during the previous year. First awarded in 2005, the purpose of the prize is "to uncover hidden talent in children's writing" and is therefore open only to authors who have published no more than three books. For the first two years, the award was known as the Ottakar's Children's Book Prize, but when all Ottakar's stores were rebranded as Waterstones following the HMV Group takeover of the Ottakar's chain, the prize also changed its name. Beginning in 2012, the prize was divided into three categories: Picture Books, Fiction 5–12, and Teen.〔 Each category winner receives £2,000 with an overall winner chosen from the three getting an additional £3,000 (thus the overall winner receives £5,000 in total).〔 ==Winners and shortlists== 2005 – ''The Cry of the Icemark'' by Stuart Hill *''Nelly the Monster Sitter'' by Kes Gray *''Siberia'' by Ann Halam *''The Goose Girl'' by Shannon Hale *''The Merrybegot'' by Julie Hearn *''The Whole Business with Kiffo and the Pitbull'' by Barry Jonsberg *''Urchin of the Riding Stars'' by M.
