Re: Publishing a book written by a class

Look into "Kids Are Authors" writing contest sponsored by
Scholastic. There are several books written by groups of
students. I worked with a 6th grade class two years ago and
submitted a transcript based on a persuasive letter they had
written to our principal asking for a class pet. They didn't
win the contest, but it was a wonderful writing experience
for them.
