You commented that you didn't know where this book belonged in children's books. When I ordered it I thought it was going to be a picture book. Then when I opened it I discovered it belongs more in the chapter book category. The reason I suggested an editor is because she would see right away where the book belongs, plus make suggestions to strenghthen what you already have going. You have only three chapters in your book, most containing line breaks. To me that's where you put a new chapter. Most chapter books for readers of your intended audience run at least ten chapters. This is why I feel you need an editor. Well-worth the investment.(less)

I owned and ran an ice cream parlor for sixteen years. A child-friendly environment like no other (we had lots of candy too). But have I ever come up with a single idea having to do with ice cream? I have found I can't force stories. They come. And it's up to me to recognize them.(less)

I’ve been thinking about writing a blog here for a while. I’m not sure why. I write a blog on my website and find that I sometimes have difficulty keeping up with what I challenged myself to do there. But here I am going to talk about picture books. That’s what I write. That’s what I review. That’s my passion. Picture books are one of the most expensive genres to create and probably one of the lea Read more of this blog post »
