You Have To Write

No one else can say
what you have seen
and heard
and felt
today—

but if you tell us well,
very well,
your stories will seem like our own.

This is an encouraging book, sympathetically illustrated by Teresa Flavin's charming pictures, for all young readers who worry when they're told to write something.
