(4) 4-6 Basher Basics series. Written by Mary Budzik. In this chatty small-trim primer, genres, parts of a story, devices, and more are concisely defined and then introduce themselves: Horror warns "I'll give you the chills!"; Structure calls itself "Plot's conscience." Anthropomorphizing these concepts textually and in the manga-style illustrations may confuse young readers, but the field-guide format is fairly easy to navigate. A removable poster is included. Glos., ind.
