Book InfoWhen I speak about writing to children during school visits, I often remind them that they are the world's greatest experts about their own lives. It makes sense to write about what we know. If we chose to write about what matters most to us, the memories that make us giggle, gasp, shiver, laugh, and cry, we are likely to do our best work. And a little daydreaming along the way doesn't hurt.

You can tell that you have rhyming disease when you sit up in bed with really bad rhymes running through your head, verse you've been dreaming.

I
Help her reel
Those
Sky Fish
