Writing For Children

Writing prompts are a superb way of getting the imagination working. A child is able to listen to the prompt and then conjure up a story that comes to mind from that prompt, although it's not as simple as it sounds. The challenge to the child is to find a story no one else will find, using that prompt to give them their initial ideas. This book teaches children to be able to use prompts to produce stories and is split into different categories, so that the child can choose the category that suits the mood.
