How would you tell the Twilight story?


If you have been a fan of the Twilight series, you probably had your own ideas of what might happen next for the Cullen family and their friends and foes.

Now is your chance to put your creative skills to the test and try for a chance at free movie tickets and a copy of the soundtrack for the New Moon movie.

The contest details can be found at the JCPL website.

For those adults who may wonder what this contest will do for their kids or students, we encourage you to check out the page for Teachers/Librarians. Not only will this contest tap into some creative writing juices, but it will give writers the opportunity to learn some research skills, as well as explore geography, mythology and art.

This project could be incorporated in a wide variety of subjects and lessons—what better way to get students enthused than to base a lesson around their favorite books?!
