Young Author Writing Contest 2008






Every year my kids participate in the Young Author Writing Contest....not always by their choice. :-)   We now have a great collection of books authored by the West kids.  This year Kyle wrote a few short allegorical stories.  These were assignments he had to do anyway. :-)  Jonny wrote two books, one a tall tale and one a chapter book after he read an abridged version of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.  Jenna wrote a tall tale and wanted to write more but we didn't get a chance to do it.  I will have to start earlier next year.  Here are just a few pictures from the Young Author Tea and one picture of the Imagination Machine.  The Imagination Machine turned one of Kyle's short stories into a play.  His original story was called, A Man Name Complainer.
