Writing Children’s Books

A good children’s book always shows instead of tells.

Children are some of the most enthusiastic readers of all! Kids love getting lost in imaginative stories and stepping into other worlds through eye-catching illustrations. In this episode, host Clarissa Moll invites you to explore the realm of children’s book publishing with special guest, illustrator Yuko Jones. Find out what it takes to write and illustrate a children’s book and how to get your message across without sounding preachy.

The Writerly Life is a production of hope*writers.
