Story Starters: Helping Children Write Like They've Never Written Before Paperback – 1 April 2006

This is a really well presented book but the style of writing is old fashioned. It did not appeal to my eleven year old son at all. The idea is brilliant with lengthy openings and pictures to prompt the ending which you write yourself. The stories are all set in the past and are very well written but not in the language that would be spoken today. It would definitely appeal to a certain style of writing but it did not engage my son's enthusiasm.
