Throw Out the Rules: The Kids' Guide to Becoming a Writer

By Kristyn Jo Benedyk

Every child has experiences and stories that only they can tell. However, sometimes kids can be so worried about making spelling or grammar mistakes that they are afraid to write.

This book, designed for either at-home use or in classrooms as part of a writing curriculum, takes the fear out of writing. It teaches kids that having all the rules memorized is not what makes you a great writer. What makes you a great writer is having a unique voice that you can share with the world. Writers can always go fix the mistakes later, after the story is written. That is why professional writers have editors

This book fosters kids' inherent creativity and storytelling skills through a series of activities, writing prompts, mini-lessons, and inspirational quotes.

The author combines her over 20 years of experience teaching writing and designing writing curricula at both the high school and college levels with her own passion for writing with the hopes that young writers will have the courage to pick up their pencils and share their imagination with the world.

It is also a great gift for young aspiring writers
