I’ve been waiting for the stories from the 2012 Canadian Children’s Book Centre’s Writing Contest and I just got the call that they’ve arrived. I have stories from grade 4 again this year. Guess what I’ll be doing for the next while!
If you missed the contest deadline this year, there’s always 2013. And, don’t forget that dozens of authors and illustrators will be touring the country to promote books and reading all week long. Your school might even be lucky enough to be hosting a visiting author or illustrator.
Winning entries for the writing contest will be announced during Book Week, May 5-12.
