Title: A MUST HAVE FOR CHILDREN'S MYSTERY WRITERS
Review: In her book, Joan Lowery covers each aspect of writing mysteries, in easy-to-follow steps and provides many examples for each. Not only does the author succeed in teaching you the "how-to" of mystery writing, she manages to spark new ideas through her examples.This book is a "must have" for anyone interested in writing mysteries for children. The information is so clearly presented that once read, you have a firm grasp about what mystery chapters should contain, planting false clues, and writing scenes and pacing the action.A small portion of this book covers writing Picture Book mysteries and mysteries for magazines. The majority of the text is about writing mysteries for the 8-12 age group.
