PBS Kids Writing Contest!

Calling all kindergarten, first, second, and third grade writers!

You can enter this contest. Yeah, there are prizes, but it's the fun of writing a good story that matters.

Kids Can Do It Update

Gabrielle Fuller, age 8 from North Carolina
and
Isabella Penola, age 12 from New York
have won a writing contest!
They won Mrs.P.com's "Be a Famous Writer" contest.

Their stories will be made into a video, which you can see on www.Mrs.P.com in March. Powell's Books is giving them a gift certificate to its bookstore.
Gabrille and Isabella will also get a copy of their story as a real book.
Gabrielle's story is called "Pretty Princess and Funky Frog."
Isabella's book is called "Spattered Mud and Crushed Petals."

Congratulations to these two young writers!

You can enter Mrs.P.com's writing contest in September. Start writing!
