Do you want to give students an opportunity to win a $10,000 grant for the library of their choice? Encourage them to enter the annual Letters About Literature contest!
Sponsored locally by the Minnesota Humanities Center and nationally by the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress in partnership with Target, the contest asks students to write a letter to an author, past or present, describing how that author’s work changed the student’s view of the world or of himself/herself. Readers can select authors from any genre, fiction or nonfiction, contemporary or classic.
Entries are due December 14, 2007.
