Writing For Children

Lo scopo di questo libro è quello di parlare dei processi della fantasia e delle regole della creazione per renderne l’uso accessibile a tutti. Partendo dall’esame dei congegni che muovono l’immaginazione, l’autore non ci consegna, però, un ricettario per costruire storie, ma offre “materia prima”, idee, occasioni di riflessioni fantastiche utilissime per superare la muraglia della routine scolastica e per riconoscere il ruolo della creatività all’interno del processo educativo.

Children learn English differently from adults. They have an innate ability to pick up language while taking part in an activity that connects language with images. That's why connecting animals and English fundamentals is a secret way to program the language into your children's brain. Young kids are like sponges. And once your kid grows older, it becomes much harder to learn a foreign language. Don't let your fears and lack of knowledge take away your child's opportunities.

My sand life, my pebble life. My life measured out in tides, coming in and going out. My life measured out in games of trying to spot the sea first.
