Creative Writing !
Literacy connections is a must: what better venue to inspire writers than to use what's been written. Share a lead, share that
so well known character description. What about those secret, safe, out-of-this-world settings?
In the introduction of The Winter Room, author Gary Paulsen prompts all readers and writers to think about the power
of language...."If books could be more, could show more, could own more, this book would have smells..."
Just what would those smells be? What about the sounds or the lights or colors? (Read this book to find out the truth)
But books can't have smells or sounds or lights or colors ! Can they?
