If you have kids who want to learn how to write a story from idea to “The End” this book can help walk them through. The author, in easier to draw worm form, helps the reader to work through ideas, characters, using color and space effectively in design and illustration, setting, and all the other necessary requirements of a cohesive story writing process. Activity breaks are given after the introduction of each element so this truly is a step-by-step guide.
A great book to teach or reteach how to successfully write a story, it’s accessible and full of ideas to help children of all grade levels explore their imaginations and creativity throughout the entire writing process.

Ages 6-9
