The national co-ordinator is Jacky Atkinson.For any inquiries about the UK national competition please contact Jacky at: natorgklq@gmail.com.  The Kids' Lit Quiz is a major national celebration of books and reading imported to the UK from New Zealand, which offers irresistible reading challenges, broadens awareness, is hugely motivating for boys - and, best of all, is great fun!

Heats typically take place November/December (fast forward on the timetable below). Typically there are about 15 regional heats, followed by a national final for the winning teams of each region. Quizmaster Wayne Mills blogs from around the country after each heat http://kidslitquiz.blogspot.com/
