I have written a few children's books. The first book that I wrote was for children. It was called 'The Package', and it was a mystery story in pictures. It had no words. ~ Laurie Anderson
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Laurie Anderson
In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun. You find the fun and - SNAP - the job's a game! ~ Julie Andrews Edwards
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Julie Andrews Edwards
My freshman English professor at Kent State University in 1984 told me I was a good writer, and she loved all the silly pictures I drew in my notebook. She said I should try writing children's books, and so I did. ~ Dav Pilkey
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Dav Pilkey
I'm one of those very lucky people who absolutely love what they do for a living. There is no career better suited to my eccentricities, strengths, and passions than that of a children's book author. ~ Mary Pope Osborne
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Mary Pope Osborne
Books that children read but once are of scant service to them; those that have really helped to warm our imaginations and to train our faculties are the few old friends we know so well that they have become a portion of our thinking selves. ~ Agnes Repplier
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Agnes Repplier
Anything can become a children's book if you give it to a child ... Children are actually the best (and worst) audience for literature because they have no patience with pretence. ~ Orson Scott Card
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Orson Scott Card
To write for children at all is an act of faith. ~ Madeleine L'Engle
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Madeleine L'Engle
People are usually surprised to hear this, but I don't really read children's books. ~ Beverly Cleary
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Beverly Cleary
With a few exceptions, the critics of children's books are remarkably lenient souls ... Most of us assume there is something goodin every child; the critics go from this to assume there is something good in every book written for a child. It is not a sound theory. ~ Katharine Sergeant Angell White
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Katharine Sergeant Angell White
I feel sometimes that in children's books there are more and more grim problems, but I don't know that I want to burden third- and fourth-graders with them. ~ Beverly Cleary
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Beverly Cleary
A friend suggested that I get a job at a children's book store so I could meet kids and read books, and that turned out to be the single best bit of advice I've ever gotten. ~ Brian Selznick
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Brian Selznick
There is no place like home. ~ L. Frank Baum
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by L. Frank Baum
The weekly cartoons, as were my plays, came from a sense of criticism, criticism of the times, critical of the culture, of our manners and attitudes towards each other. The children's books come from the reverse. They're more supportive, since we're living in a time where we talk more about kids and do less, we talk about balancing the budget and we do it by cutting education. ~ Jules Feiffer
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Jules Feiffer
There's a different flavor to children's literature you read after you grow up than there was reading it as a child. Things that were sweet as a child become bitter once you grow up. ~ Mizuki Nomura
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Mizuki Nomura
As a child I read all kinds of stuff, whether it was 'Asterix and Obelix' and 'Tin Tin' comic books, or 'Lord of the Rings,' or Frank Herbert's sci-fi. Or 'The Wind in the Willows.' Or 'Charlotte's Web.' ~ Mohsin Hamid
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Mohsin Hamid
More than this, I believe that the only lastingly important form of writing is writing for children. It is writing that is carried in the reader's heart for a lifetime; it is writing that speaks to the future. ~ Sonya Hartnett
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Sonya Hartnett
I'm also very hopeful to continue my literary journey into the realm of children's books. To be able to read my kids a children's book that was inspired by them would be everything! ~ Trista Sutter
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Trista Sutter
I tend to be known for different things. I mean, there are a lot of comics or sci-fi fans out there who sort of think of me doing that kind of work, but there are just as many people who like the CD covers I've done, or the children's books I've done. So different people like different things. ~ Dave McKean
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Dave McKean
Back in my days as a children's book editor, my superiors caught on to the fact that teenagers were using the Internet to gossip about each other, and thought it might be nifty to develop a series of books about an anonymous high-school blogger who gossips about her classmates. The concept was passed on to me. ~ Cecily Von Ziegesar
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Cecily Von Ziegesar
I wondered if that was true: if they were all really children wrapped up in adult bodies, like children's books hidden in the middle of dull, long adult books, the kind with no pictures or conversations. ~ Neil Gaiman
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Neil Gaiman
It doesn't happen all at once. You become. It takes a long time. ~ Margery Williams
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Margery Williams
People say to me, 'How do I know if a word is real?' You know, anybody who's read a children's book knows that love makes things real. If you love a word, use it. That makes it real. ~ Erin McKean
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Erin McKean
There are too many coy books full of talking animals, whimsical children, and condescending adults. (Some of the most famous animals in the world have talked, but they talked real talk and they weren't called silly names like Doody and Mooloo. They were called names like The Cheshire Cat and they asked sensible questions like "Did you say pig, or fig?") ~ Katharine Sergeant Angell White
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Katharine Sergeant Angell White
I love Inuit art, and most anything you would find in a folk art museum, as well as children's art or children's book illustrators or illustrators in general - all the kinds of work that my paintings would draw comparisons to. ~ Neil Farber
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Neil Farber
The question has been asked, 'What is a woman?' A woman is a person who makes choices. A woman is a dreamer. A woman is a planner. A woman is a maker, and a molder. A woman is a person who makes choices. A woman builds bridges. A woman makes children and makes cars. A woman writes poetry and songs. A woman is a person who makes choices. ~ Eleanor Holmes Norton
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Eleanor Holmes Norton
I see a vision of a great rucksack revolution thousands or even millions of young Americans wandering around with rucksacks, going up to mountains to pray, making children laugh and old men glad, making young girls happy and old girls happier, all of 'em Zen Lunatics who go about writing poems that happen to appear in their heads for no reason and also by being kind and also by strange unexpected acts keep giving visions of eternal freedom to everybody and to all living creatures. ~ Gary Snyder
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Gary Snyder
Writing a computer virus program is child's play. Any fool can do it, which is why the silly little twerps who do have nothing to be proud of. ~ Richard Dawkins
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Richard Dawkins
Erudition - that is, reading, writing, and arithmetic - is taught in the schools; but where is the more important quality, character, taught? Nowhere in particular. There is no authorized training for children in character. ~ Robert Baden-Powell
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Robert Baden-Powell
Your characters are always your children. And while you are writing, you're keeping them safe. Now they're ready to go into the world and it's sad. I'm happy with the way the novel came out but all the characters' ending really saddened me. ~ Yiyun Li
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Yiyun Li
BRADBURY: Well, if you love people you criticize them, and if you don't love them you don't criticize them, you let them go to hell, don't you? To help any kind of friendship, your marriage, your children, you criticize because you love. And this works the same way. With your friends
let's say in writing
if you don't offer criticism to them and scare them on occasion ... In other words you say to a new writer, for gods sake write, because if you don't you will disappear. The world doesn't give a damn about you unless you do something. Those are the rules; I didn't make them. If you are lazy, if you don't get the work that you love done, the world won't care if you die tomorrow and go into the grave and are gone and forgotten forever. ~ Ray Bradbury
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Ray Bradbury
Good writing is difficult no matter what the reader's age-and children deserve the best. ~ Aaron Shepard
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Aaron Shepard
Books are not written about proper children. They would be so dull no one would read them. ~ L.M. Montgomery
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by L.M. Montgomery
We are writing for children...not idiots. ~ Ludwig Bemelmans
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Ludwig Bemelmans
Writing stretches me to my limits and affirms my potential, all while making me aware of my flaws, my mortality, and how much more I have to learn. It's a singular feeling, both spiritual and corporeal, and I like to think it sparks the same inspiration and curiosity in a child that it does in an old man. ~ Kit Williamson
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Kit Williamson
The deep, personal material of the latter half of your life is your children. You can write about your parents when they're gone, but your children are still going to be here, and you're going to want them to come and visit you in the nursing home. ~ Alice Munro
Writing Children 27s Books quotes by Alice Munro
