Letter about Literature Contest

This contest is sponsored by the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress and is sponsored by Target.  There are three competition levels:  grades 4-6, 7-8, and 9-12.  Students must write a personal letter an author (alive or dead) and explain how that author's work changed their perspective about the world or themselves.  Winners choose their favorite library which is then granted $10,000!  The winners themselves get a $500 gift card.  Smaller prizes are also awarded.  The deadline is December 2011.  For more information go to
