First, this is a quite well-written 'manual.' It is conversational (read: not boring), not overly complicated, and it also does not talk down to kids. It covers many forms of writing, and seems to be a compilation (based on the sections and their lengths) of:Once upon a Time: Writing Your Own Fairy Tale (Writer's Toolbox)Sincerely Yours: Writing Your Own Letter (Writer's Toolbox)Words, Wit, and Wonder: Writing Your Own Poem (Writer's Toolbox)It's All About You: Writing Your Own Journal (Writer's Toolbox)Share a Scare: Writing Your Own Scary Story (Writer's Toolbox)Just the Facts: Writing Your Own Research Report (Writer's Toolbox)Each section outlines the necessary tools (for example: setting, characters, plot, dialogue, etc), gives examples of each, and follows along a story (or letter, or report, etc) to show each tool in action.
