    This Guide offers suggestions to help children who want to enter the PBS KIDS GO! Writers Contest.

    For the Contest, children may make up a story, relate a true experience, or write a poem. Children may dictate their stories to someone who can print, legibly write or type the final version of the story.

    Think of the ideas in this guide as a menu from which to choose. A young writer may know exactly what he wants to write and will dive right in. Or maybe she would like more guidance to plan out a story. Once the story is written, review the Contest checklist and suggestions for how to revise the story to make it even better.
