McFly pair Tom Fletcher and Dougie Poynter have seen their children's book win its first award.

The musical duo released 'The Dinosaur That Pooped Christmas' in October last year and it seems to have gone down a storm.

It has now reigned supreme in the Best eBook Children's category at the 2013 Publishing Innovation Awards, which were held in New York on Wednesday (January 16).

Speaking on Twitter about the accolade, Tom Fletcher said:

"Awesome news! Our book The Dinosaur That Pooped Christmas has won an award! Well done."

A synopsis for the book says: "Danny wants everything for Christmas. But what he gets is a dinosaur, a very hungry dinosaur. Danny's new dino eats up all of Christmas, but as we all know, what goes in must come out...Danny is about to have the most EXPLOSIVE Christmas of his life! There's poop, presents and prehistoric creatures in this festive feast!"
