“It's great that there are so many different kinds of books for kids and adults to choose from. I think an eclectic reader is the best kind of reader to be, which would be why I was always so satisfied to hear that kids read the Baby-Sitters Club books and then went on and discovered other authors and other genres.” ThinkingKindBookDifferentWould BeKidsBabyReaderAdultsClubsSatisfiedGenreDifferent KindsEclecticBooks For Kids Author:Ann M.

“A couple of pieces of advice for the kids who are serious about writing are: first of all, to read everything you can get your hands on so you can become familiar with different forms of writing: fiction, non-fiction, poetry, journalism. That's very important. And also keep a journal. Not so much, because it's good writing practice. Although it is, but more because it's a wonderful source of story starters.” WritingFirstsImportantDifferentStoriesHandsKidsFormFictionPracticePiecesWonderfulAdviceSeriousSourceCoupleFamiliarJournalismJournalNon FictionGood WritingWriting FictionStarters Author:Ann M.

“I think the complaint that I hear most often from kids, even kids who like to write is that don't know what to write about. A journal is a great source of story starters.” ThinkingWritingKids Author:Ann M. Martin
