I wrote my children's book because I believe there are children that are hurting and may need to know that there is love out there for them- God's love.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I like writing for children. It seems to me that most people underestimate their understanding and the strength of their feelings and in my books for them I try to put this right.
I wrote a few children's books... not on purpose.
I have written, probably, more books for children than any other writer, from story-books to plays, and can claim to know more about interesting children than most.
My writing works best when I remember that bookish child who adored reading and gear the work toward him.
I prefer to write books for children instead of reading them. But I do strongly believe in childhood and in respecting childhood innocence. I don't like books for children that deal with adult themes.
All my children inspire me in life, and that always comes out in the writing.
I always love writing about children.
I didn't start out writing to give children hope, but I'm glad some of them found it.
I do not really write for children: I write only for me and for the few people I hope to please, and I write for the story.
You don't need to have kids to write a good book for kids. I don't want my kids to see themselves in my books. Their lives should be their lives.
