Find out all the details about the event and register your entry at <https://library.sewanee.edu/ed...;. Entries are open to community members, as well as Sewanee students, staff, and faculty! Each entry should be edible — cakes, vegetables, fruits, bread, etc. — and represent a book or something about a book. Past entries have included “Grapes of Wrath,” “A Farewell to Arms,” and “The Hungry Caterpillar,” among other literary greats. We have six categories that will have prizes awarded: Punniest, Literary Theme, Showstopper, People’s Choice (popular vote), Best Team Entry, and Best Entry by a Child (under 12).
