Many congratulations to absolutely everyone who submitted a story to the BBC 500 Words competition this year.
A record 120,421 entries were received,which means, all together, over 60 million words!
Every story is special and so it must have been a very hard job to narrow them down to a short list, and then for the Judging Panel to decide on the three winners in each of the two categories (ages five to nine and ages ten to thirteen).

Sharing stories is incredibly important, not just for the ideas and adventures, but also so that all of us, not just children, may not feel alone and may understand that others are not always happy or perfect and that others too, in their real or imaginary worlds, have troubles, or have been bullied, or are unlucky in other ways. Cruelty and kindness, hardship and fortune, happiness and sorrow all play a role in our lives and stories help us understand that. Stories can also help individuals look at relationships and how they work, or do not, and sometimes give insight into how that might have come about, or indeed be improved. Ideas and visions are also inspired by sharing stories.
