Every person has a story to tell and The CT Summer Story Project has invited public libraries to share theirs, in partnership with colleagues, community members, and middle grade writing groups! Six public libraries across the state of Connecticut have written stories about libraries, local legends, and state landmarks. The stories contain nature, giants, wishes, and princes.
From June 22- July 27, every Monday a new short story will be released with accompanying discussion questions and activities. Prepare yourself for fairy tales, adventure, mystery, and intrigue during the inaugural Connecticut Summer Story Project!
We're ready for your narrative surprises:
