Synopsis

This innovative pack is filled with creative ideas designed to inspire storytellers of all ages. Learn how a story is constructed, from great beginnings to exciting conclusions and all the details in between. The cards feature 'categories' (such as character, setting and action) as well as 'sparklers' -- suggestions to get the imagination flowing -- and 'warm-ups' -- ideas to get writers to put pencil to paper. With 50 cards to choose from, the story ideas are limitless! And the extensive booklists -- with book ideas for all ages -- will get kids reading, too!

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

A deck of 50 oversize cards stored in a book-shaped cardboard container, Once Upon a Time: Creative Writing Fun for Kids by Annie Buckley and Kathleen Coyle, illus. by Cathy Law, brims with inspiration. Divided into categories such as "How-To," "Genre," "Character," "Setting," etc., the cards each show a cartoon illustration on the front, pictured above questions, ideas and reading suggestions at three skill levels. The back delves deeper with various brainstorming tools (e.g., "Think of all the ways that we use the word run: running out of time, a river running by, paint running down the canvas").
