Raising Little Shoots Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Hello there my 10 yo dd would like to write a non fiction book. I am wondering if there are any good resources written for the child themselves that she could use? This is not part of our school time, this is something she would like to do in her free time Thanks for reading! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanikit Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I am not sure exactly what you are looking for - there are many different types of non fiction and probably the easiest for a child to write is an autobiography or a biography of someone they could interview. Other topics require quite a depth of understanding of the topic - even if writing to kindergarten children. I know of no guide for children - the best thing to do would be to read other similar books on the same topic or in the same style and then "copy" them. Would be interested to hear though if there is such a guide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raising Little Shoots Posted May 22, 2013 Author Share Posted May 22, 2013 Sorry I was not clear earlier - I wrote in a rush. She wants to write a book :) All about guinea pigs. It does require a depth of understanding as you say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
