The best children's and young adult novels take readers on
wonderful outward adventures and stirring inward journeys. In The
Magic Words, editor Cheryl B. Klein guides writers on an enjoyable
and practical-minded voyage of their own, from developing a
saleable premise for a novel to finding a dream agent. She delves
deep into the major elements of fiction-intention, character, plot,
and voice-while addressing important topics like diversity,
world-building, and the differences between middle-grade and YA
novels. In addition, the book's exercises, questions, and
straightforward rules of thumb help writers apply these insights to
their own creative works. With its generous tone and useful tools
for story analysis and revision, The Magic Words is an essential
handbook for writers of children's and young adult fiction.
