A mum said she is "immensely proud" after her son won a national writing competition.
Harley Creighton, 10, from Southport, took first place in the 10-11-year-old category of The Young Author Award beating thousands of other competitors for the top prize.
Drawing inspiration from his literary hero Roald Dahl, Harley's work titled "The Boy Who Flew Around The World in One Day" follows a boy who visits some well-known landmarks and unites people on a mission to bring him back down to the ground. His mum Rachel said he gets his "vivid" imagination from making up stories in the car together.
