In the spirit of Washington Post’s classic contest, Bud Werner Library sponsored its own book-inspired Peeps diorama competition in March and April.

For the contest, book lovers of all ages imagined literary scenes using Peeps and then crafted individual dioramas inside shoe boxes. The dioramas were put on display, and the Peep-le’s Choice Awards were decided.

The winners were Dylan and Nana in the children’s category for “Little Red Riding Peep,” followed by Claire and Allie Reznicek for “Welcome to Funjungle”.



In the teens category, Evie Fisher and Tierney McDowell took home top honors for “The Office: Dunder Peep-lin, Inc.” while Mia Dupre, Izzy Cerasoli, Claire Shea and Izzy Gagliano took second for “Peep-Man.”

The grand prize in the adults category went to Team Strange Steamboat for “Peeper Pan.”



The top submission in the children’s category for year's Literary Peeps Diorama Contest was “Little Red Riding Peep.”
