Inside the book

An idea comes to life, one scene at a time.

Eight guided activities help children imagine a main character, build a world and create an eight-page illustrated story.

The Four-Scene Story Studio cover beside the first guided pages for choosing a starting idea.

Imagine who the story follows and where it begins.

Short prompts help children choose a main character, a setting and the moment that sets the adventure in motion.

Five guided pages from The Four-Scene Story Studio for deciding what happens in four story scenes.

Shape what happens in each of the four scenes.

Children arrange their ideas in an order that feels right and see the whole story take shape before they start writing.

Amelia and a friend open a handmade doorway into the luminous world they created together.

Make it their own

Let the story come to life, one page at a time.

Children write and illustrate each scene, change anything they want along the way and bring the story to life through the final page.
