KIDS WRITE!

KIDS WRITE ABOUT BOOKS!

Hey kids, this page is just for you! I believe that words are the bridge to anywhere you want to go, and anything you want to know. If you can read, you can use books to travel all over the world, through outer space, and even back in time. If you can read, you
can learn how to do anything you want to do, build a birdhouse, fix your bike or cook a birthday cake. If you can read, anything, and everything is possible.

I want to know...how has a book helped you? Was there something you wanted to learn more about, and you looked it up in a book? Was there someplace you wanted to visit, and you found the perfect book to help you understand about someplace new? Was there some time that a book just seemed like the absolute best thing to you
 in the entire world?

Tell me your story, and I'll post your comments here.

Send me your name, age, city, state, school, book title and the author's name. Who knows...maybe your words will help someone  else get where they want to go, or learn what they need to know.

You can email me your story at kids@susantaylorbrown.com



KIDS WRITE ABOUT DOING THINGS WITH THEIR PARENTS

Let's make a list!

In my picture book, Oliver's Must-Do List, Oliver makes a list of the things he wants to do with his mom. Send me your favorite things to do with your mom or dad and I'll post them here.

1. I like to go to the park with my mom and take turns going down
the slide. Corey, age 6

2. I like to help my dad work on our car. Megan, age 7

3. I like to read books with my mom. Leslie, age 6




KIDS WRITE ABOUT PRAYER

Let's make a list!

In my picture book, Can I Pray With My Eyes Open?, the main character
finds many different places to pray, such as in a tree, in the car, and in her room. Send me your favorite places to pray and I'll post them here.

1. We pray at the kitchen table just before we eat. Brian, age 9

2. I like to pray in my room with my cat. Brittney, age 6

3. I pray in Sunday school and in my room and in my backyard and in my car. Dustin, age 7
