Congratulations to Yvonne and Susan, winner and finalist in the CANSCAIP Writing for Children Contest

Hi, Brian.

My I am Cheetah won the Picture Book category for the CANSCAIP contest. I can’t believe it! I’m so excited!

The story came from a prompt in your Kid Lit class, and thanks so much to you and to Susan and the rest of the class for helping with it.

Hi, Brian.

I just wanted to let you know that I am one of the finalists for the CANSCAIP writing contest for my picture book, A Monster's Guide to Children. And the winner is Yvonne Denomy, one of my former classmates with you 😊 !

Thank you so much for all of your support and assistance with this story and so many others.  Can't wait to take Picture Book Intensive with you in the winter.

Susan Wollison

 

Congratulations also to Linda Hutton for The Frozen Pond, which also won in the Picture Book category and to Heather McLennan for Willa and the Wildfire, which was the other finalist.

Plus congratulations to everyone in all the categories who made it to the final round, to the short list (here) and the longlist (here)!

And of course, a big thank you to the many volunteers at CANSCAIP who read through and gave feedback to the 1,400 entries in this year’s Writing for Children Competition
