Chester's Masterpiece

32 pp. | Kids Can | March, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-1-55453-566-8 $18.95
(3) K-3 In this meta-story, Chester the cat hides author Mélanie Watt's supplies, so he can write his own tale. As Chester struggles with originality and encounters writer's block, Watt offers him--and the reader--pointers on how to construct a real story with a setting, characters, and plot. Attention-grabbing illustrations show Chester, red marker in hand, drawing kid-friendly sketches.
