642 Things to Write About: Young Writer's Edition: (Creative Writing Prompts, Writing Prompt Journal, Things to Write about for Kids and Teens)

So glad I bought this! My daughter is sometimes put off by having to write long stories. Or starts but doesn't finish them as she has many ideas but gets tired putting them all on paper.This book is AMAZING and such a great idea! It's literally packed with an impressive collection of writing prompts designed to spark anyone's imagination. It features thought-provoking and diverse prompts, ranging from imaginative scenarios to introspective questions - so there is something for any mood and any effort level. Each prompt is presented in a clear and concise manner, providing ample space for young writers to pen down their ideas and try out different writing styles.Ironically, my daughter now goes beyond the available writing space and continues on her own paper. It's a very clever idea!Highly recommended for anyone looking to really challenge their writing and push boundaries with ideas!

I love this book! Bought for my 6 year old to encourage him to widen his vocabulary and use imagination. It would be equally appealing to my 10yr old and to be fair I’d probably happily pick it up and have a little scribble if it’s lying around at over 25!The way it is set out is very accessible, it’s small spaces to explore the heading, my son completed two pages on Christmas Day sat amongst a Nintendo Switch and array of Nerf guns - says a lot!

This book is so much fun.. I have an 11 year old son who has a mad imagination but struggles a bit with creative writing as he is dyslexic. This book has really helped us harness his imaginAtion and encourage him to test out story planning and new ideas. It's not seemed like homework at all just really interesting and fun ways to tell stories

This is an excellent book to stimulate children's imagination for writing.I ORDERED AND PAID FOR TWO BOOKS BUT UNFORTUNATELY ONLY RECEIVED ONE IN THE PACKAGE SO DISAPPOINTING FOR MY TWIN GRANDCHILDREN

I am a primary school teacher,so this will be great to use in the classroom,lots of fun and strange ideas to inspire children to write. Sure it would be equally as good if used at home encouraging children to just have a go at writing.

Bought for my 8 year old daughter for Christmas. It has been brilliant at prompting her to write about things she wouldn't necessarily think about, which can only be good for her writing skills in general! As a family, we have sometimes sat and taken turns to pick a prompt for us all to write about, and then read them out to each other - often funny results and again encourages her to practice writing in a fun way. It will also be nice to keep the book to look back on when she's older. Highly recommended.

Ah this is genius, I was first introduced to this at my local pub and it was getting passed around for anyone to write in so I bought 2 for me and my wife and this one for the kids, they love it and I think it will turn out to be an awesome novel.

Entertaining and useful at work on raining days within my class

A fun book for the classroom to get students writing. A good book for special ed and gen- ed students.

This book has simple prompts to inspire your own creativity. You can get it for yourself or to do as a pair or as a group.

My daughter loves it!It gets her started with random ideas to start writing, and then she just won't stop.

Este es un libro genial para trabajar la creatividad y reforzar la imaginación entre los niños.Una manera inmejorable para que se adentren en el mundo de la escritura de una manera muy amena.Totalmente recomendable.Una pena que no se encuentre disponible en castellano.

Im Gegensatz zu den "642 Things to Write About" für Erwachsene lassen die Writing Prompts für jüngere Schreiber allzu persönliche Schreibaufgaben weg und regen stattdessen noch stärker die Fantasiewelt an, greifen auch mal auf Lese- und Filmerfahrungen der jungen Autoren zurück.Eine Aufgabe spielt z.B. auf Harry Potter an, wenn eine Eule eine Nachricht überbringt, in der steht... und das ist die Aufgabe.Ein schönes Buch für Creative Writing oder für leistungsdifferenzierte Aufgaben in Lerngruppen, denn hier kann jeder schreiben, was er mag und so viel jeder kann und möchte.So schreibt vielleicht ein Schüler einfach, dass die Eule eine Einladung zum Tee bringt und wann und wo und bei wem, ein schreibbegeisterter und sprachlich starker Schüler vielleicht eine ganze Geschichte.
