The Creative Writer

- Simple but innovative exercises encourage young writers to strengthen their vocabulary and become aware of the patterns of sentences

- Legends and folklore are used to teach point of view, characterization, plotting, and other vital skills

- Classic poetry serves as a model for the student's own original poems

- Unlike most "how to write" books, The Creative Writer is designed to be used in a mentor/student relationship, with teaching, guidance, and evaluation tips provided for the mentor or teacher

- Can be used as a complement to Writing With Skill or on its own
