The Iowa City UNESCO City of Literature celebrates creative writing by outstanding up-and-coming young authors as part of its annual One Book Two Book Children's Literature Festival. Two students from each grade (1-8) are honored for excellence in one of the following categories:

  • The Write Stuff - judged on language, clarity, structure, and emotional impact
  • From the Heart - judged on creativity, passion, and expressiveness

  • Students read their work in front of an audience at Macbride Auditorium.
