Exercises, examples and checklists show writers how to capture and keep a young reader's attention by mastering key storytelling elements.

Book News Annotation:

Lamb, the author of some 40 books for children and adults, provides insights on the processes of storytelling: from finding inspiration to structuring a tale to creating memorable characters. She uses examples from many classic children's stories to instruct would-be writers in elements such as plot, subplot, point of view, scene-setting, beginnings and endings, inner and outer dialogue, and themes and morals.
