From the School Library Journal:
K-Gr 2-These simply written titles will appeal to newly independent readers....... In Ah-Choo, a girl entertains herself
while she's home from school with a cold. Each book contains a word list that can be reviewed prior to reading to ensure that
children will be successful and not frustrated. The list has compound words, consonant blends, and diphthongs, so some prior
reading experience is necessary. However, with one short sentence per page, these titles are good choices for youngsters who
are developing word recognition skills. In all three books, colorful cartoon illustrations adequately convey the action described
in the pleasant texts.-Laurel L. Iakovakis, Douglas County Libraries, Castle Rock, CO Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
. . .In STEP-BY-STEP, a boy dyes white flowers and presents this colorful creations to his grandmother.
Readers who want to try tinting flowers can follow the easy steps. Miller's cartoon illustrations capture the fun. - Laura
Scott, Farmington Community Library, MI Copyright Reed Business Information.

Writing for children is a joyful endeavor. It takes
heart, passion, and one endearing story that yearns to be told. As with all things, commit to putting your own ideas on paper.
A story left untold will never blossom or touch the heart of a reader.
Now start writing. Thinking about it is not the same as doing it!
