This combined edition of Winter Tales and Once upon a story... brings together two very distinct creative writing books for children aged 7 and over.

Winter Tales uses the themes of Winter, holidays, seasonal fun and familiar but exciting ideas to help children think and write creatively.

Once upon a story... uses magical and fantastical ideas and imagery to encourage children to create their own stories about lands full of witches and wizards, goblins and giants, and everything else you might find in a fairy-tale.

Both Winter Tales and Once upon a story... have been published separately, as part of the Creative Writing for Kids series. They follow on naturally from the first two volumes in this series but can be worked on without first completing the other volumes.
