Dave Ross commissioned the show for the BBC and gave it the name; he had already produced Masterteam, a quiz show hosted by Angela Rippon, and worked on the long-running Mastermind, and so the name was a continuation of that. The format was revived and updated for the BBC in February 2005 by executive producers Roddam and John Silver with series producer Karen Ross.

the E. B. White Read Aloud Award for Picture Books

the E. B. White Read Aloud Award for Older Readers.

Titles are nominated for the award by ABC booksellers, and then the final decision is made by a committee of booksellers that meets annually in February. The awards are publicly announced, and the official presentation takes place, during a children's dinner at BookExpo America. They are announced in conjunction with Indies Choice Book Awards. The award was last given in 2019, the final year that BookExpo was held.

Because the award nominees are generated by independent booksellers based on books they have loved in their own stores, there is no formal outside submission process.
