Good morning and happy World Book Day, everyone. I'm Leah and here's

:00:00.:00:09.

what's coming up. England beat Denmark in the footie,

:00:10.:00:14.

and Daniel Sturridge celebrates inwardly style. And the bizarre

:00:15.:00:20.

annual footy match where everything goes. This is newsround.

:00:21.:00:26.

huge celebration of authors, illustrators and books in over a

:00:27.:00:35.

hundred countries all over the world. Thousands of you will be

:00:36.:00:38.

going to school this morning dressed as characters from your favourite

:00:39.:00:43.

stories. Ruby has dressed as fantastic Mr Fox. Sophie is going as

:00:44.:00:53.

gangster granny, and Olivia is going as Alice. Jack is Harry Potter. Take

:00:54.:01:04.

a snap of yourself in your costume and send it to us. Now, if you were

:01:05.:01:07.

watching our earlier bulletin you would've seen us exclusively

:01:08.:01:10.

announcing the winner of this year's Blue Peter Books Award for Best

:01:11.:01:14.

Story. And joining me on the sofa is the newly crowned champion Katherine

:01:15.:01:20.

Rundell. Katherine, congratulations. How do you feel? It feels like every

:01:21.:01:26.

Christmas and birthday in one. What does it mean to win the award? This

:01:27.:01:32.

award is voted for by children, because they are the people who read

:01:33.:01:41.

the book. What is the book about? It is about a little girl who goes to

:01:42.:01:45.

Paris in search of her mother, and she discovers this gang of children

:01:46.:01:50.

who live upon the rooftops, and they have fights with bows and arrows. It

:01:51.:01:54.

is an adventure story. It sounds magical. Where did the idea come

:01:55.:02:00.

from? I used to go running across the rooftops of the Oxford colleges,

:02:01.:02:05.

and I discovered something up there, and I wondered, what happened if

:02:06.:02:11.

there was another world up here? So you have created a magical world.

:02:12.:02:15.

What your friends and family say? They think it is wonderful. What

:02:16.:02:19.

advice do you have for any young aspiring authors out there? Read.

:02:20.:02:27.

Read lots of books, have adventures so that you have something to write

:02:28.:02:32.

about later. Thank you for joining us, and congratulations. Now, make

:02:33.:02:34.

sure you're watching Blue Peter at 5.30 on CBBC to see Katherine and

:02:35.:02:38.

the other winners receive their awards. They'll also be lots of

:02:39.:02:40.

World Book Day celebrations including a chance for your ideas to

:02:41.:02:44.

be turned into a story by author Anthony Horowitz live in the studio.

:02:45.:02:49.

That sounds amazing. Plus find out which book characters Barney,

:02:50.:02:52.

Lindsey and Radzi will be dressed up as. A boy from Preston has become

:02:53.:03:01.

the youngest person ever to successfully carry out atomic

:03:02.:03:04.

fusion. 13-year-old Jamie built a nuclear reactor at school, before

:03:05.:03:07.

successfully smashing two hydrogen atoms together to make helium. The

:03:08.:03:10.

results still need to be verified, but Jamie was pretty excited by his

:03:11.:03:14.

experiment. I was altering the high-voltage and

:03:15.:03:17.

checking the pressure inside the chamber, and then I heard the Geiger

:03:18.:03:25.

counter rapidly go up and Spike, and the neutron counter went crazy. It

:03:26.:03:30.

was brilliant. You can make something that you might see in a

:03:31.:03:35.

star in the sky at night, and a little chamber. It is just magic.

:03:36.:03:40.

Janey, but is brilliant. Moving on to sport. All the home nations were

:03:41.:03:44.

in action last night for friendlies ahead of the summer's footy World

:03:45.:03:47.

Cup in Brazil, and the Euro 2016 qualifying campaigns. Roy Hodgson's

:03:48.:03:50.

England side left it late - Daniel Sturridge scored the only goal of a

:03:51.:03:53.

slow-moving game against Denmark with a cracking header. The

:03:54.:03:56.

Liverpool striker then treated fans to his brand-new wiggly-arm dance -

:03:57.:03:59.

nice moves, Daniel! And Gareth Bale starred in an

:04:00.:04:03.

impressive 3-1 win for Wales over Iceland in Cardiff. Having set up

:04:04.:04:10.

the first goal, the Real Madrid ace then picked up the third himself for

:04:11.:04:13.

Chris Coleman's side. Elsewhere Scotland beat Poland 1-0, but

:04:14.:04:16.

Northern Ireland went goalless against Cyprus. But now to a

:04:17.:04:27.

football match like no other. Hundreds of people took part in the

:04:28.:04:30.

yearly Shrovetide match in Ashborne yesterday. Pretty much anything goes

:04:31.:04:33.

in the fast-paced match, you can even shove and grab other players,

:04:34.:04:37.

in fact one of the only rules is that you can't carry the ball in a

:04:38.:04:42.

car! The aim is to get the ball to the goal posts, which are in the

:04:43.:04:46.

middle of a river. Not one for the easily bruised, that one.

:04:47.:04:52.

That's all from me and the Newsround team. Don't forget to send us your

:04:53.:04:56.

pictures of what you are dressed up for, and I will see you tomorrow.

:04:57.:04:58.

Goodbye.
