Reading Rainbow Contest

Reading Rainbow

THE READING RAINBOW WRITING CONTEST WINNERS HAVE BEEN SELECTED!

Maryland Public Television (MPT) would like to thank all young writers who entered the 14th Annual Reading Rainbow Young Writers and Illustrators Contest. We couldn't have done it without their enthusiastic participation. We would also like to extend a special thank you to all the dedicated teachers and parents who supported these young authors, as well as our valuable contest judges.

This year's contest attracted over 200 imaginative entries from across the state. We are proud to honor and display their talented work.
