CALLING ALL POETS!!

It's time for us to start collecting poems for the Westwood Public Library's 2006 Poetry Anthology of Original Poetry by Middle and High School Students. And because so many younger students have asked us about having their poetry included, we've decided to publish another book, The Westwood Public Library's Poetry Anthology of Original Poetry by 4th and 5th Grade Students.

This year we'll be accepting submissions by email as well as at the Westwood elementary school libraries, the libraries at the Thurston Middle School and Westwood High School, and at the Westwood Public Library. But you don't have to be a Westwood resident!

Send your poem to: westwoodpoetry@yahoo.com. Be sure to include your full name, grade, school, email address, and phone number. 30 line limit, family friendly language, and only 1 poem per student. If you send more than one, we'll pick which one to publish. Poems accepted until April 13.
