I was just commenting to a friend, after I initially posted this thread, that we need to write children's book. Tired to be age appropriate.
Kaylee, you are so right about the age thing. I don't care for the first two, and the Ali book is better.
The problem with all the books is the age and the voice. One is about "my mom". One is about "grandpa". Why do they have to be about a specific person. Write the book in a way that the adult reading to the child can inject the person they are speaking about.
Thoughts??
