What are some good fiction books, with a great plot and colorful words?


I love reading, but I don’t know what books to buy. I like fantasy based stories, royalty, adventure. I hate horror stories and anything to do with killing others or self. I also want to increase my vocabulary too.

Suggestions?

What are some great ideas on teaching creative writing to kids?


I’ll be teaching a creative writing class this summer to a group of 11-14 year-olds. I have experience teaching writing (mostly poetry) to adults, but teaching kids will be new territory. Does anyone have some great tips, websites, resources for exercises, and reading materials for this age group? Thanks!
