Perfect for teachers and guardians of primary school-aged children, this resource supports literacy, imagination, and a lifelong love of writing, both in the classroom and at home.

Tutor Isabelle King explains how to create characters and memorable settings, encouraging young writers to then explore their stories further.

These short exercises are suitable for children to work through on their own or in a group setting. We recommend a parent or teacher being present to help.
