Description
Karen Andreola's book has the right ingredients to inspire even the reluctant child or student to write. Her "story starters" encourage children to write imaginatively. A "story starter" suspends the student-writer in a predicament: faced with the question, "What happens next?", it becomes his cue to expand and embellish the story as he wishes. He learns to write with imagination, zest, and boldness.
A book of many illustrations, most of them 19th century drawings, Andreola knows how to awaken the dormant writer in your child with a lively approach to creative writing, with opportunity to rescue those in danger, comfort the sick, cheer the lonely, laugh with the ridiculous, tame the wild and do battle for good. Learn to replace dry, dull writing with engaging and exciting styles.
