The Special Award Winners of The Morgan Book Project

The Special Award winning books from The Morgan Book Project are now posted on their web site! Click on the individual names to see selected pages from the kid's books. The Turtle Shell of Torture by 3rd grader Kate Reynolds is a great fantasy story and My Necklace Memories by 4th grader Kelly Chang about a necklace handed down in the family was touching. There was poetry, the surprising birth of hamsters, a dad turned into a knight to save the day, an account of a hunt with a Native American father and son and stories of friendship lost and found. All the stories were great and imaginative, and the illustrations showed a wonderful sense of layout, design, use of color and storytelling. A selection of books were also on view for a special 1 day exhibit. Congratulations to all the participants!
