The most common complaint I hear from parents has to do with their child's approach to writing. It's quite normal for children to resist writing assignments. I'm here to tell you that it doesn't have to be that way. By providing your child with a clear purpose for their writing lessons, you will boost their motivation and encourage them to do their best work. Through the process of writing format through publishing, my kids do better work, and are happier about it, too!

A few years ago, all three of my children wrote books which are now available for purchase.  My son worked for an entire year studying about the jungle and choosing just the right animal or plant to include in his ABC Jungle Book.  After making these choices, he wrote a paragraph about each one, using a writing stylistic checklist.
