This book is fabulous! With just a few sheets of large paper and some art supplies, children can create amazingly powerful books that not only inspire them to write wonderful stories, but to demonstrate their artistic abilities as well. However, fear not . . .you need not be an accomplished artist or writer to enjoy and learn from the activities presented in this book.
