=Introduction= //It's that time of year again! Imagin8tion is back! It's back for it's 8th year to promote literacy to children and teenagers all around the world! This year's theme is Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone! The judges at Imagin8tion and the whole Imagin8tion staff are challenging you, yes you, to create a product that shows your deeper understanding of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, the characters and the setting.//

=Task= Imagin8tion is a charity that promotes Literacy. This year the theme is Harry Potter. Imagin8tion challenges the readers to create a product that shows the importance of characters and or setting and how they are an important aspect of all stories. The judges have given a few options that the participants can choose from such as creating a movie and recreating one of the scenes from the book, a comic, or putting their writing skills to use and rewriting a chapter to demonstrate. It is crucial that the participants change one aspect of the setting or of the character's personality. For example what if Hogwarts was now placed in the middle of New York? How would that affect the plot? Or what if Harry Potter had befriended Malfoy and became one of his followers. The Judges will then look over all of the entries and pick a first, second, and third place winner. The first place winner will be flown over to England to meet J.K. Rowling and attend a creativity workshop run by her. They will be provided with lunch and one on one time with J.K. Rowling herself! They will also have their product featured on Pottermore for the Harry Potter world to see.
