My daughter Morgan wants to be a writer. I shouldn’t say wants to be, I should say is a writer. She writes daily and wants to publish something badly. We are actually currently working on that now.
Not too long ago we received a book to review called Sewing a Friendship
She is very good at describing the characters in her book, so much so that you can actually picture them in your head. Sewing a Friendship is about 4 friends.
Here is the character description:
Meeka, the science lover, likes to calculate the percentage of water in the air. Jonsy lives for gym class and hanging upside down on the bars. Nina likes to play the guitar and be noisy, and Sokron likes fashion magazines and designing girly-girl outfits. Then there’s Dogon. This spy-dog who likes to eat cat food supplies the shenanigans that lure the girls outside, directly into the path of Kiki.
She’s memorable too, but in a not-so-good way. As far as the four friends are concerned, she’s the meanest girl on the planet. Little do they know, Kiki sleeps in an old broken gray coach in her aunt and uncle’s living room, and she believes that those around her are always disappointed in her.
I think the book is a good example on why you should not judge those without taking the time to fully know them and their situation. Sometimes we need to go out of our way a bit to figure out what is really going on and who someone really is.
I’m impressed that a girl of only 10 was able to tackle this subject in such a great way! I highly recommend the book. Not only does it have a good life lesson, but it could inspire a love for writing in your child. It will show them that it can be done! You are never too young to follow your dreams!
