2nd Annual Animal Services Tails of Hope Short Story Writing Contest
Back in May we asked our community to write a short story about their furry friend. We were thrilled to receive so many creative and high quality submissions and are happy to announce our top 3 winners, one from each age category:
- The Turtle and the Coyote, By Isabella: 5-7 years old
- The Little Rescue, by Katelyn: 8-10 years old
- The Tiger of the Underworld, by Erum: 11-12 years old
Young authors received a professionally published copy of their story and 4 large compilation books were created to highlight the top 17 entries. 2 compilation books will be in circulation at the Pickering Public Library, while 1 will remain at the Pickering Animal Shelter and at HiFive Kids Dental & Braces. We encourage the community to stop into each of the locations to read these talented authors stories.
Congratulations to all of our young authors!
Here are the top 3 stories, one from each age category. Participants are shown below.
