The award winning author and illustrators take kids through all the steps in creating original stories — from getting ideas to tips about characters, titles, dialogue, pacing, and how not to get discouraged by all the revising. Includes wonderful illustrations by Alan and Lea Daniel.

"Lots of workable writing advice. It is aimed at 8- to 12-year-olds, but people of all ages may find useful pointers here, and not just about picture book writing … balanced answers to popular questions asked of authors during readings and school visits." — Canadian Book Review Annual
