The First Page is a brand new creative writing challenge for students in Grades 7 to 12, created by CBC Books.
The challenge? We want students to give us a glimpse of the great Canadian novel of the year 2167. Write the first page of a book set 150 years in the future, with the protagonist facing an issue that's topical today and setting the scene for how it's all playing out in a century and a half.
