Magic Under the Sea contest results

My 2nd essay contest for kids has ended. The topic was MAGIC UNDER THE SEA and 8-12 year olds were invited to mail in essays 250 words or less. The entries were all very creative! Magical mermaids, sea turtle riding and dangerous sharks. I was very impressed with all the essays and wish to thank everyone who entered for your hard work. I was only going to award five Honorable Mentions, but they were so good I added two more.
Here are the results:
$100 First Place: The Adventures of Porpoise Pete by John-Paul Heil (PA)$50
Second Place: Sparkels Are Forever by Niveditha Raghavan (CA)
$25 Third Place: Cassie and Roxi Find the Most Beautiful Treasure of All! by Cassandra Rozinsky (TX)

Honorable Mentions (free autographed book prizes):The Finding by William Kikoski (Arizona)
