Teach Your Child Creative Writing

Teach Your Child Creative Writing is a complete course for children aged 6 to 12. It has been written after 15 years of teaching and research, and is based on the development and progress of very creative youngsters. Starting with simple sentences and expanding to paragraphs, the 31 Activities stimulate imagination, improve proficiency and contribute towards creativity. The Essential Grammar needed for story writing is also covered uniquely and interestingly. Exercises and sample solutions are included in the notes after each activity. Whatever creative talent you have will be brought out or will improve markedly with this book, which requires a minimum of supervision and guidance by a tutor, teacher or parent.
