Palomares students participated in the Bri Books National Young Authors Fair. BriBooks aims to publish one million books authored by children for children. Students used the free BriBooks writing platform and were able to write their own stories. The books were then published via Amazon, enabling family and friends to purchase copies of the published books.  Students even earned some royalties. The students in the picture are holding their published books. Palomares also earned a Literary Leadership award. Six Palomares Hawks were in the top 50 National Best Selling Authors. Third grader Naya Gayrard was one of ten Jury Award winners for her book, “The Girl in the Treehouse.”
