“Narrator Heather Henderson does a superb jobof capturing the enthusiasm of the text—a job made easier by Levine’sconversational tone. Henderson’s pacing allows listeners to absorb the author’spointers on creating memorable characters, creatures, and worlds. However, theaudio version may be more inspirational than practical as frequent prompts forthe listener to stop and write make this a poor choice for listeners on the go.Nonetheless, the combination of Levine’s engaging writing and Henderson’spitch-perfect narration ensures that even a listener in transit will gleanuseful tips and the inspiration to continue the writer’s quest.”

“The best part of Levine’s book is her honesty as she shares with children the truth that there are no perfect books, that rejection can be as useful as success, and that you thank the creative part of you by using the ideas that it sends. A terrific item to have on hand for writing groups or for individual young writers who want to improve.”

“A veritable treasure trove of advice and guidance for writers across a range of ages.”
