The Magee Public Library recently celebrated TeenTober, a Young Adult Libraries Services Association sponsored event. TeenTober is a chance for libraries to celebrate all things Teen!

One of the ways Magee Library celebrates is with a short story contest. For the third year in a row, Magee Library has partnered with the Magee High School English teachers. Students are asked to write a short story based on a theme with this year’s being anything creepy or scary.

This year’s winning story was written by Kaylee Meacham. Kaylee is an 11th grader at Magee. She submitted her story in Ms. Etheridge’s class. Kaylee has attended Magee schools her whole life. Her winning entry is titled, “The Girl That Lost It”.

The Magee Library is part of the Central Mississippi Regional Library System serving Rankin, Scott, Simpson, and Smith counties. Their website is cmrls.lib.ms.us.
