I wanted to and wrote a non fiction rhymed story about Madame Tussaud. Whole story was written to the tune “Alouette, Gentille Alouette” One of the lines was “there she’d sculpt the severed heads. Of the newly regal dead” Needless to say we never went on submission with it. #kidlitchat

Happy #kidlitartpostcard day! The idea for this piece came from watching football. No kidding. I watched a Baltimore Ravens game. Turns out their name is inspired by Poe. So I imagined Poe as a 12 year old boy gathering inspiration for his future work… which inspired NFL team. #kidlitart #poe

ALT DO…be honest, but kind. There’s always something good, but don’t be afraid to point out what isn’t working. DON’T point out something being off and not have a suggestion on how to tweek. #kidlitart
