The
Children's Literature Council of Southern California
is proud to be a partner and Level 1 sponsor of the California
Center for the Book's Letters
About Literature Contest.
"The
California Center for the Book is a reading promotion agency
that celebrates California's rich literary heritage and promotes
reading, libraries, literacy, and authorship.
Letters
About Literature is an annual, national reading-and-writing
contest that invites students to write a letter to an author,
living or dead, explaining how this author's book gave them
wings, became a part of their lives, or changed their way
of viewing the world and themselves. Research has shown that
children who read, write better; and children who write, read
more. This reading-writing link is at the heart of Letters
About Literature."
