Young Authors! Saturday morning, a few chosen students attended an awards ceremony for the Young Authors program. In addition to the awards, the students heard inspirational speeches, met with other young authors from other schools and had a chance to read the other's works.

Here's a picture of my daughter (far Left) reading with some other students. I'm very proud of her for doing such a great job on her book, which was very long, but I told many just to read her opening paragraph. It's as good a bit of writing that I've ever seen. The main problem with writers of this age is that they often get tired of telling a story and end it too quickly. I'm proud that she hung in there and told the story, no matter how long it had to be.
