And Getting Published.
Have you ever thought about writing for children? Is it easier than writing for adults? How do you get started? How should you present your work to publishers?
These and many other relevant, practical questions are answered in this comprehensive guide. The authors draw on their own experiences and on those of a host of other authors, agents and publishers to give you a professional's insight into the process of writing for children. They give advice on all types of writing - picture-book texts, fiction and non-fiction - and tell you what to expect if your work is, or isn't, accepted. They demonstrate key points with a comprehensive range of examples and end each chapter with suggested exercises to encourage you to apply what you have read and develop your own writing skills.
Both new and experienced authors will find much of interest and value in this book, whether you work through it as you write or dip into it as and when you feel you need help.
