Description
The quiet magic of Goodnight Moon grows into the zaniness of Dr. Seuss and widens into the dazzlement of Harry Potter then matures into the straight talk of Judy Blume and the gritty reality of The Outsiders. Such is the amazing journey children take through books. These stories are a treasured part of childhood and they linger for a lifetime. Writing for children is fun but not child's play.
In this course, you will discover how to balance youthful imagination with adult professionalism, gain awareness of the various forms and age-ranges, and learn such craft elements as character, plot, point of view, description, dialogue, setting, voice, and theme. You will also learn how and where to market your work.
Whatever type of children's book you seek to write – picture books, EZ readers, chapter books, middle grade, young adult – you will learn how to write stories that will entrance young readers.
Highlights- 10 Week Online Course
- Write picture-books or articles, or begin middle readers or young adult books
- Weekly writing exercises
- Lectures on the major genres and fundamental concepts
- Present work for critique
