I created this event to encourage families to explore literature through poetry. Poetry is an amazing way to expose children to a broad array of cultures, vocabulary and explore a whole new way of thinking. 

I also created this event to give budding writers a chance to be published. Both homeschool children and their parents, all over the world, are permitted to participate. Last year, children were able to see their parents work toward a goal and set a valuable example of creativity & grit. Parents watched in awe as their children composed deep meaningful written art.  

We have picked you to be a judge after hours of searching to find the judges that would best serve our contest submitters. Our theme this year is Patriotism. All countries have stories of patriotism, fighting for freedom & rights, and a beautiful land. We believe that you have lots to offer and look forward to working with you.
