I predict that The Creativity Project (Little Brown Books for Young Readers) will be a hit with classroom teachers. Colby Sharp, an avid literacy advocate, gathered together more than forty beloved, award-winning, diverse and bestselling authors and illustrators and presented them with a creative challenge. I was honored to be one of those authors asked to not only suggest two writing prompts, but to respond to a prompt provided by another book creator. Readers get a peek into the creative processes of published writers but are also given the opportunity to try their own hand at responding to the book’s prompts. It’s out this week!

Always on the cutting edge of creativity, Colby -sent his blog post via video! Inspired by the “friends” theme of this feature, he asked the Book Whisperer, Donalyn Miller, to help give us some tips for making friends on line. Enjoy!
