The 2007 Readers' Cup was a tight competition with Christ Church Grammar L. W. Parry Preparatory School winning with a perfect score, closely followed by Mount Claremont Primary School and St Mary's Anglican School for Girls in second place and Scotch College and Subiaco Primary School in third place.

Other participating schools included Mosman Park Primary School, Methodist Ladies College and Wesley College.

Many thanks to WA Judge Margaret Robson Kett for running the quiz and to Christ Church Grammar School for provding a great venue for the Readers' Cup in their chapel.

In a Children's Book Week event that's becoming bigger and better each year, reading and books are the real winners in the Readers' Cup.
