Parents' Choice Recommended

An imaginative and creative way of educating readers about effective storytelling and elements of style. Great for sharing one-on-one or in a language arts classroom. --School Library Journal

This tongue-in-cheek way of delivering the rules of creative writing is clever, and paired with Le Huche's earnest, childlike illustrations, it seems to be aimed at giving helpful direction to aspiring young creators. --Kirkus Reviews

From E.B. White Read Aloud author Adam Lehrhaupt comes an inspiring new picture book that takes apart the pieces of a story--hero, heroine, setting, conflict--and asks the reader to put the story back together again. This is a good story...or is it?

As a child takes her pencil and begins to draw pictures for a story, the narrator takes her and the reader through a rollicking sequence of events in this classic tale of bad guys and townsfolk and dungeons. With simplicity and flair, Adam tells a story and then a meta-story of the parts of the story at once! This Is a Good Story is a wonderful primer on the parts of a story and an imaginative way to encourage creative thinking, writing, and storytelling.
