Book excerpt: Pictorial story starters, arranged in a progressive sequence, give young writers lots of help at first, but then less help as youngsters build skills and become more self-reliant. Initial story starters supply lists of words young writers can incorporate into their narratives; mid-book story starters provide first or last sentences to help youngsters shape their plots' beginnings and endings; and the final few open-ended prompts are pictures only, requiring the full employment of students' imaginations and skills. An introduction provides correlations to the Common Core State Standards. Grades 1-3. Good Year Books. 44 pages. Second Edition.
