The notion that writing a children's book is more difficult than writing a book for adults stems, I think, from the need to express often complex ideas in only a handful of words. Heck - Proust spent a few hundred pages on a kid getting a goodnight kiss from his mother. A picture book author has to do that, plus deal with monsters under the bed, cranky siblings, and all manner of magical happenings in about 32 sentences! :) All the best, Jon Bard Managing Editor Children's Book Insider, The Newsletter for Children's Writers --------------- visit the Children's Writing SuperSite for lots of free info -- http://write4kids.com/ Nice post!
