Congratulations to the
198 coolest kids in Central
Illinois! They each wrote and illustrated their very own books and
submitted them to the 13th annual WTVP READING RAINBOW Young Writers &
Illustrators Contest. WTVP thanks you for sharing your awesome stories
with us.And although it's a tough job to choose, we're
pleased to announce this year's local first-, second- and third-place
winners. The four first-place winners advanced to the national awards competition,
and all our local winners will be treated to a party in the WTVP Studio with
their families and teachers, and you can look for them on-air, too. Every
entrant received a Certificate of Achievement signed by series host LeVar
Burton.
You all did a fantastic job and you're all winners
in our book!
Keep reading, keep writing and keep
sharing those
stories! And be sure to watch READING RAINBOW every
weekday at 3pm on WTVP!
