Title: not for my son
Review: book was VERY lengthy! far to many stories and examples for my taste and, it's definitely more geared toward a younger writer as opposed to an older child. my son is in 3rd grade and i would say 90% of the book is for K-2. also, the games outlined for his age are definitely not anything he would be interested in. ever. look....if you have a younger child who might actually somewhat enjoy writing or at least not fight you to do it (which is what I get) than this would be a good book and can provide some different aspects for getting their minds flowing. for me...i have an 8yr old son in 3rd grade who would go to the ends of the earth to NOT ever have to do anything remotely related to writing or creative writing...so, this book was merely a waste of money. i "might" try and incorporate some of the ideas should he give me the chance to do so. until then, i have to tap into his interests which are far from anything language arts. sigh...
