It's a wonderful thing to write for children.

It is extremely important to me to write for children.

I loved writing for kids, I loved talking to children about what I'd written, I don't want to leave that behind.

Writing for children is an art in itself, and a most interesting one.

I loved to write when I was a child. I wrote, but I always thought it was something that you did as a child, then you put away childish things.

I've always loved writing.

I've been writing stories since I was a kid. I love writing stories.

I write for kids because I think the most interesting (and most humorous) stories come from people's childhoods. When I was writing 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid,' I had a blast talking on the phone to my younger brother, Patrick, remembering all of the things that happened to our family when we were growing up.

I get the ideas from everything. Children sometimes think you have to have special experiences to write, but good writing brings out what's special in ordinary things.
