The deadline for fourth through 12th grade students to enter Wyoming’s Letters About Literature Writing Contest arrives on Jan. 9. Students can win Amazon gift cards of up to $150.
“To enter, read a book that inspires you or gives you a new way to see the world,” said Susan Mark, Wyoming State Library outreach librarian. “It can be one you’ve just picked up, or one you’ve read before. Then write a letter to the author — living or dead — to share how the book affected your life.”
Both classroom and individual entries are welcome. A teaching guide is available that provides activities and addresses how the program can dovetail with curriculum for teaching reading and writing. Ready-to-print posters to promote the contest are available on the Wyoming State Library website at http://library.wyo.gov/letters.
Questions may be directed to Susan at susan.mark@wyo.gov or (307) 777-5915 or to Cary Dunlap at cary.dunlap1@wyo.gov or (307) 777-6338.
