Book excerpt: "I don't know what to write about!" is the common response when kids are asked to indulge in creative writing. This lively collection of unique writing activities will quiet that complaint forever! The 101 fun and functional creative writing activities in this book were designed to stimulate the interest and creativity of children. The author's philosophy, "if it's fun, kids will do it," is obvious in such whimsical ideas as having students write 10 ways to complete the sentence: "If I were a ___, I would ___" or challenging them to write home remedies for the common cold, a headache, sibling rivalry, homework overload, etc. These writing activities encourage kids to write about what they know best - themselves - and turn writing practice into a time of self-expression. Students will find pleasure in the writing process using these ideas.
