Inhaltsangabe

From four award-winning and bestselling middle grade authors comes the writing guide for ages 8-12 that feels like a lively conversation over school lunch. In Tools, Not Rules: A Writing Guide for Young Creatives, four middle grade authors speak directly to students in grades 3-6, the target audience for their novels. Students will find engaging, short chapters in each of the four authors' unique voices. These are followed by skill-developing and idea-generating writing activities complete with modeling examples. With advice on everything from finding ideas to actually publishing a book, Tools, Not Rules takes a bite-sized approach to creative writing that both challenges eager writers and heartens hesitant ones. Parents and educators will appreciate the resources to jumpstart their students' imaginations and the mini-lessons built into the pages for classroom use or for fast-finishers. Students will appreciate the personal anecdotes from the authors, candid conversations, and the behind-the-scenes look at how the pros do it.
