Emma Mactaggart started from where you possibly stand today - with a passionate need to create, but not a clue how to do it! After 12 years of experiences and thousands of hours of researching, testing, painting, writing and more research again... Emma has devised a hand holding guide. She is the founder of the Child Writes program, guiding primary school aged children through exactly the same process, so she knows if a child can do it - so can you!
'The practicality of Child Writes is only matched by its infectious enthusiasm. Child Writes is a toolbox and instruction manual equipped to turn dreamers into writers. No more excuses: read this book, then sit down and write your own.'Â
