“Now the idea of the two of them wandering aimlessly in and
out of boutiques, not only strangers in a new city but doubly lost without the guidance
of their shopping guru, was enough to make Olivia’s inner ear ache.” This is
said in the book Wish by Alexandra Bullen and it makes me think a lot about
formatting and editing a piece. The author not only shows instead of tells but
also uses repetition to draw in the reader. Of course this drew my eye to it
because we currently writing children’s books and showing not telling are one
of the things I need to improve on.
This book isn't a very educational book but it does have a
lot of writing details that can help and influence any writer. It uses sophisticated
language that attracts the younger readers. This is really important in children’s
books because you always want to keep the readers awake and aware of what is
happening in the story. It seems that all books have a meaning other than to
spark interest in readers some are educational; some are things to help other
writers.
This book doesn't have much educational value in a reader’s
perspective but to another writer it includes many lessons taught and untaught.
I believe that every book has more than one meaning. There is never only just
for the readers there is always one for the writers.
