Premio Campiello Junior: A meeting for the young jurors
The Premio Campiello Junior keeps pressing ahead, towards the moment when the winner of the first edition will be announced on Friday, 6 May 2022.
For the young people on the Readers’ Jury, the time has come to read and choose their favourite book. On Wednesday, 9 March 2022, over a hundred very young jurors, from schools across all Italy as well as from abroad, came together for a meeting put on for them by the Pirelli Foundation and the Fondazione Il Campiello.
The young people had a chance to talk about their passion for reading and their first impressions of the three finalist books in a conversation with the team of Pirelli Foundation Educational, together with Chiara Lagani and Michela Possamai, two members of the Selection Jury that in December chose the three finalist titles from the many candidates.
The young readers of the Jury clearly showed their deep love for books and a great desire to make their opinions known. The choice they make over the coming weeks will help decide which book wins the prestigious award.
The next event, which will be for all those who love reading, will be live-streamed on Tuesday, 5 April 2022 with the participation of the finalists: Chiara Carminati, Guido Quarzo and Anna Vivarelli, and Antonella Sbuelz, who will tell the audience about what inspired the stories and characters that they brought to life in their books.
