Praise for Writing Boxes

Writing Boxes is a really smart, kid-centered, and easy-to-replicate program. I’ll be recommending it wherever I go.

Jon Scieszka, National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature

A call to action, a jolt to the senses, and a repository of all around good advice.

Elizabeth Bird, Collection Development Manager, Evanston Public Library

This is an indispensable handbook for anyone who wants to encourage writing in classrooms or libraries or after-school programs.

Jennifer M. Brown, Children’s Librarian, Bank Street College of Education

The author combines superlative credentials, including experience as a school and academic librarian and teacher, with knowledge of children’s literature and child development, and offers an abundance of “hands-on” information in this practical guide.
