Throughout the spring, Ephrata Inteermediate School 5th and 6th Grade students wrote, edited, and illustrated stories for individual or class books as part of their Language Arts class. The stories and illustrations were sent to a publisher to be bound. In early June, the students received their books and were able to share them with classmates. Four hundred eighty-three books were published at no cost to the school or the students. Parents/guardians were also given the opportunity to purchase additional copies.
