Now in its fourth year, Kahani's Annual
Young Writers and Illustrators Contest challenges readers
to pen a 500-word short story that must incorporate
three key words picked by the magazine¡'s Editorial
Board. Submissions are divided into 6-8 and 9-11 age
groups. Once the top three stories are chosen from
each group, readers are asked to illustrate the first
place
story that corresponds to their age category.
The work of the top authors and illustrators are published
in Kahani's Spring issue and the winners
also receive cash prizes. Runners-up are awarded gift
cards.
We'll announce the three new words for
the 2008-2009 Kahani Contest in mid-September, so keep
checking back!
