Tweener Time Cover Art Competition   Tweener Ministries seeks to develop creative potential in high school students and to provide a venue where their creativity can be shared.   All Tweener Time Competitions are open to high school teenagers around the world. You are invited to design the cover art for the book that won the 2008 Tweener Time Chapter Book Competition, Nathan Quist and the Insurmountable Problem.  Your task is to create the cover art that will cause tweeners to want to read (and purchase) this winning book. For a synopsis of the winning book, send an email to info@TweenerMinistries.org. Please include your name, address, the school you attend.   Why high school students?                 1.  You're the people tweeners want to emulate the most.                 2.  You know better than anyone what tweeners like to see since you were a tweener just a few years ago.            3.  You are trailblazers for tweeners. Teenagers can demonstrate that hard work and creativity can be rewarded.   What should you create?                 1.             The cover design must capture the attention and imagination of tweeners.                 2.             It should illustrate the storyline of the book in a graphic manner.   REMEMBER: Your target audience is kids in elementary and middle schools, and it must appeal to both boys and girls.
