Young Writers Workshop
Do you have a budding Shakespeare, J.K. Rowling, or John Grisham at home? If your child or teen loves to write, check out these fun writing workshops.
Through interactive games and activities, young writers learn to wow readers with exciting scenes, compelling dialogue, and active language that keeps them on the edge of their seats.
Then, they write original short stories that are published in a professional-style class anthology!
Whatever your young writer’s level, these workshops will help ramp up their skills so they can impress their teachers at school.
In the end, they’re proud of the published book they can show off to family and friends.
