Young Authors Book Writing Contest 2009


Get your kids writing this summer!

It's time for the 7th annual Young Authors Contest. So get busy this summer and stay tuned for some fun events at ImaginOn, to get your children's creative ideas flowing. Want to collaborate? We've added a special category for collaborations between artists and writers (of the same grade category), so work with a friend or partner.
