What about a Backstory in Your Picturebook?

Posted by: on: November 17, 2009

l’d love to hear what pb writers feel about a backstory in the pbs that they write. Attended a recent SCBWI conference with one in a pb they talked about. I loved the idea. Make a great pb…  even greater. Let me know what you think.

I would love to have your comments. You can leave them here.

My Favorites:

I love the children's movies Wizard of Oz and the Neverending Story. Both movies make me feel the lesson that hope is alive and well. After seeing UP this past week, it just might have a chance at being added to this list.

I love the cool colors of blues and purples.Those colors are peaceful for me.

I love The Velveteen Rabbit. Even as an adult, I still feel the urge to cry when he becomes real. I know, silly, but a good book can make me laugh and cry as it takes me on a magical journey.
