About
Create a brand-new superhero with never-before-seen powers and the perfect arch-enemy. Learn to tell an exciting story. And it's fun, too! ~ Award-winning author Holly Schindler turns her attention to helping young writers learn the craft of storytelling. Yes, this activity book will guide users through creating a new superhero character, but it also uses brainstorming prompts to take young authors through the process of constructing a story with solid characters, plenty of pulse-pounding conflict, and a satisfying ending. Great for individual or classroom use. Suggested grades: 3-8. I'm a critically acclaimed and award winning hybrid author for readers of all ages--both the young in years and the young at heart. My work has received starred reviews from Booklist and Publishers Weekly, appeared on Booklist's Best First Novels for Youth, PW Picks, School Library Journal's What's Hot in YA, and B&N's 2016 YA Books with Irresistible Concepts and Most Anticipated May 2016 YA Books. My YA work has also won a Silver Medal in ForeWord Reviews Book of the Year and a Gold Medal in the IPPY Awards.
