A Great Way To Encourage Children To Write!

The WCNY Treehouse Tales Young Writers & Illustrators Contest is an annual event that promotes literacy and creative expression by encouraging children to write and illustrate their own stories.  Students in First through Fourth Grade (1-4) are eligible to enter.  Winning authors will be recognized at an awards ceremony held at the Dewitt Barnes & Noble in April 2010.  Winners receive prizes and each winning story will be read by the author for the guests to enjoy.  Winning stories will also be scanned and posted on the Treehouse Tales Web page after the event.  All entries will be acknowledged with a certificate of participation.

All entries must be submitted by February, 26, 2010.  See entry form for details.
