🦊 Let’s give a tail-wagging cheer to our clever 1st grade storytellers from the 2025 PBS KIDS Utah Writers & Illustrators Contest! 🐾 The “Animal Tales” theme had these young authors digging deep into their imaginations—and the results are paws-itively delightful.
🏆 1st Place: The Drought by Jessica—this story really quenched our curiosity 🥈 2nd Place: The Arctic Fox and Snow Shoe Hare by Kelsey—cool as ice and twice as nice 🥉 3rd Place: The Adventures of Maddie J. by Madison—an otterly charming journey ✨ Honorable Mentions: The Two Little Skunks by Ender, The Giraffe and the Butterfly by Yuvia, Maverick and Goose's Birthday Party by Adaline.
These critter-filled creations deserve a standing ovation! 🐾📚 Scamper over to PBS Utah’s contest page (link in bio) to read every whisker-twitching tale and celebrate Utah’s youngest storytellers. 🐢✨
