What is The Way to Write for Children : an Introduction to the Craft of Writing Children's Literature by an Award-winning Author about?
In addressing the way to write for children, Joan Aiken starts at the beginning. Is writing a children's book as simple as it looks? Do you want to write for children or about them? Do you want to write a picture book for young children, a book for new readers, or a chapter book for preteens? Why is Beatrix Potter so beloved? E. Nesbit? A. A. Milne? Maurice Sendak?<br><br>After more than fifteen years as a writing shelf classic, <i>The Way to Write for Children</i> has been completely revised and updated. From analysis of what makes the best-loved children's books so successful, to where to look for inspiration, to practical advice on how to structure a plot, Aiken delivers an extremely useful book for anyone who's ever considered writing a children's book.<br>
