September is "Save the Tiger month" and the theme for CCF's online writing contest is all about tigers. http://www.childrencomefirst.com/savethetiger.shtml

As always, you can spin it any way you want. Take the first line we give you, "The look in the tiger's eyes was one of..." and run with it. Whether you write a humorous, sad, educational or even a horror story is what will make your story uniquely yours! http://www.childrencomefirst.com/onlinewriter.shtml

The contest is open to kids of all ages, from elementary school students to senior citizens. You may browse through past entries with various themes such as summer, Earth Day, nutrition, and more, http://www.childrencomefirst.com/onlinecontestentries.shtml

So, how about submitting a 200 word story? And even getting your students to do so as well? http://www.childrencomefirst.com/onlinewriter.shtml

As always, here are the rules:
--Your story has to start with the first line given. For the current contest that line is, "The look in the tiger's eyes was one of..." That has to be your story's "first line."
--It needs to be under 200 words in length.

Write it up and submit it using the form on this page, http://www.childrencomefirst.com/onlinewriter.shtml

Fill in all the fields, especially your byline where you get to tell us how to describe you. If you have a website and/or a blog then give us the link(s) to it and we'll add it there as well. Then click the "SUBMIT" button and you're done!
