De Inktaap (The Inkmonkey)
De Inktaap is a Flemish-Dutch reading promotion project for 15-18 year olds and it is also the name of the award. The students read the three books which were awarded the three major Dutch literary awards. The students participate with their schools and form juries. They receive forms which they use for analysing and criticizing the books. The students who don’t participate as jury members read the books for their reading lists. The project ends with a festive day on which literary talk shows and ‘meet and greets’ with authors take place. The Inktaap prize is also awarded that day.
This project is run by Stichting Lezen, Netherlands (Netherlands)
