For years I have been thinking about writing a HOW TO book for kids who want to write. Now I don't have to. Anne and Ellen have crafted such a wonderful, funny, wise book about how to craft a wonderful, funny, wise book that when eager young writers send me a letter seeking my advice I can now simply say, 'Read this!' My hat is off to this dynamic duo., The singular, intense yet funny voice of SPILLING INK shares advice--how to convince your characters they are alive, avoid noisy dialog tags, wear sunglasses to feel like a spy--with much lively wisdom, and nary a hint of adult condescension. An outstanding book., Even students who never thought of writing, or dread the thought of writing, might want to try it as they read the ideas and suggestions packed into this book...The book's gems are also useful for teachers looking for new ways to get their students writing., Two fine writers put their heads together and come up with an equally fine guide to their craft for beginners., "Books on how to write can be boring, but this one is packed with funny tales from the authors' lives, lively examples, cheerful illustrations, and practical advice. These authors know that writing should be fun, and they remind us on every page. If telling stories is your thing, this is definitely your book." --Discovery Girlsmagazine"Cogent and invaluable."--Publishers Weekly"The best of recent volumes on the subject." --Kirkus Reviews"Two fine writers put their heads together and come up with an equally fine guide to their craft for beginners." --Booklist"A solid overview of the tools for literary analysis and evaluation" --Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books"Even students who never thought of writing, or dread the thought of writing, might want to try it as they read the ideas and suggestions packed into this book...The book's gems are also useful for teachers looking for new ways to get their students writing." --Library Media Connectionmagazine"For years I have been thinking about writing a HOW TO book for kids who want to write.

Dvd arrived quickly and well packaged and taken care of. The item was listed as acceptable and met all of my needs but here's a quick description of what I got: Some wear is visible on the plastic sleeve on the outside of the case. The inside leaflet was still there! The disk has about 3 very notable scratches, although none are bigger than about 2 centimeters. Little to no grime anywhere on the product. Great service!
