Childrens Big Books » christmas

I have been told my whole life by random people that I should write childrens books…?

Mon, 05 Jul 2010 06:03:50 +0000

In fact, a coworker JUST told me, as well. Does anyone know how I would go about that?
I don't even know how to write a formal book. I just goof off and fold some paper in half and write silly books for friends' kids and my nephews and nieces..... The only think I know how to do is write. I don't know how to make it look good. I can't even draw! I mean - I CANNNNNNNOT draw one bit. Even my stick figures are ugly.
Wow Sally - thanks for the vote of confidence! I always go into anything that I do with a positive mind frame. Sure, there are a lot of competitors out there - but if one is positive and creative enough, they focus on SUCCESS. I have actually achieved many goals in my life that I have set - so if I decide to get serious about writing a children’s book, I’ll be able to do it and I will succeed!
No, they don't march. I would definitely not take them very seriously if they 'marched' up to me. And yes - random people have told me to write children’s books. Many random people, in fact. I have written stories and poems for work functions, senior citizen homes, children's classes, etc. Every year I am volunteered to write our annual company Christmas Story (the place I work is large). Every comment I get (from these random people) has to deal with me writing CHILDRENS books. Never have I been told to write a romance novel or anything of that nature; which is why I even came here in the first place. I figure, if all these RANDOM people in my life have told me to write children's books, I must have some talent in that field.

And YES, I have some thick skin. Being an actress, I have been rejected plenty o' times! BUT - I ALWAYS received the roles I wanted most.

Childrens books about flying on an airplane.?

I am looking for a book for my nephew and neice (6 and 4) about flying on an airplane. We are going to Disney and I want to get it for them for Christmas. They have never flown, so I thought it would be a good idea to find a book about flying. Does anyone know of any kids books about this, preferably about flying for the first time??

Now before you say Harry Potter or anything like that i want to emphasize children's books. An example that i have are like How the Grinch Stole Christmas or like The Polar Express. Something that is easy for Children to understand. I don't really know how to describe them but almost like storytelling in a way. Thanks to everone who will answer!

I have a 5 year old girl, a 3 year old girl, and 2 babies to buy Christmas books for this year. Can you give me some good suggestions? I know of the real popular ones like Good NIght Moon, Where the Wild Things are etc. but they already have those.
P.S. The 5 year old girl loves horses!

I'd like to teach my 2 year old more about Christmas and get him excited about it through reading books to him (among other things). Does anyone know of good children's books on Christmas that would hold his attention? We're Christian so books about Christ's birth would be awesome too!
