This is a really great teacher resource full of fables, writing tips, tons of creative and original writing prompts, games, and graphic organizers. I am using it in my classroom now! It is awesome and I highly recommend it!
Write with Lions is a wonderful addition to a new writer's toolbox. Filled with dozens of Aesop's fables, writing advice, prompts, and exercises, this book has a little of everything to get you started with a new story idea or break through writer's block. Many of the fables come with illustrations to help inspire writers while working on their next tale.
Writers of all ages would benefit from this book, but younger writers may need help with some of the vocabulary. I think this would work best in a home school or classroom setting, where a teacher can help guide students or build on the wonderful examples.
This book is best for new or intermediate writers. I plan to recommend it at seminars I teach and to members of my writing group who are looking for inspiration.
