How neat for her! She must be so thrilled! Winning an all-expense paid trip to NYC would be exciting for me, so I can only imagine how an eight-year-old Australian must feel.
I wonder if this means they've announced the winner of the adult category too? Surely if it was someone in the community we would have known by now...?
And not to disparage the girl's creativity in any way, but I think it was a poor choice of the photographer to put the already existing purple-with-rainbow-hair-and-ice-cream-symbol in the photo right next to her face. I think I would have stuck Rainbow Swirl in the background if I were them.
