I recently discovered this book just as I was about to do a book reading and give a presentation at my local library about the writing and publishing process. Loreen Leedy has laid out the process in a structurally logical and easy-to-follow format that parallels what real adult writers do. She also gives wonderful examples to illustrate her points. I used the book to talk about how my book came to be a published book, from manuscript to print, but to also relate it to how kids can also write and create their own books (they don't have to wait for a publisher!). It helped me shift the focus from just me, the adult writer, to hopefully inspiring kids to create their own fun writing project. |
