Kelly McCaughrain’s debut, Flying Tips for Flightless Birds, won an unprecedented hat trick of awards at the 2019 Children’s Books Ireland Awards, as well as the Northern Ireland Book Award. Her YA novel Little Bang was short-listed for the 2025 Carnegie Medal and won the 2025 Children’s Books Ireland Honour Award for Fiction and Junior Juries Award. Her new book, Just Another Dead Boy, is a high-stakes, love and death, enemies to lovers romance set in a world where everyone knows their own death date.
