I really can't remember a better "batch" of new titles since I have been a consultant. Of all the new titles introduced at convention, this was the overwhelming favorite. It is phenomenal! It is a "workbook" that takes kids through all the steps of writing a story. It also has several pages that prompt them to write different stories...such as rewriting a familiar story (like Cinderella) from a different character's point of view. Children who enjoy writing (and kids who don't) will LOVE this book! This could be a wonderful tool for teachers to use in the classroom. It would also make a great writing curriculum for home school families. Kids would love to get this for their birthday or Christmas...the list goes on & on! Here is a sneak peak inside the book to the page that helps them develop their main character.
This new title (as well as all the others) were put on our websites yesterday...so they are now available to order! You can also order the new catalogs (July - December 2011) as well as the brand new mini-catalogs. So, the next home party or book fair order you place, be sure to include catalogs in your order. You can find them on the Select Books screen in OrderPro under Supplies. Keep a watch on the blog for more information about our fantastic new books!Julianne's daughter, Emily, wasted no time in starting her Write Your Own Story Book that Julianne brought home from convention...she LOVES it! :)

Last night before bed Emily proudly asked if she could read me the first 4 stories she has already written! She loves the tools and suggestions this book offers. She also loves that she gets to create her own table of contents progressively as she completes this book. I think every young writer needs this book!
