Meet Andy and Terry. They make books together in the world’s coolest treehouse! They’ve got loads of different storeys in their home in the sky: you can find a marshmallow machine, the world’s most powerful whirlpool, a penguin ice-skating rink, a tank full of sharks and a human pinball machine, among many other things. But none of these help them agree on their special story for World Book Day – and it’s not just Mr Big Nose keeping an eye on them now, but the story police too!

Characters, setting, plot, conflict, point of view, and theme are six key elements for writing fiction.

Characters are the people, animals, or aliens in the story. Readers come to know the characters through what they say, what they think, and how they act.

It is more structured, follows proper grammatical pattern, and correct mechanics.

By viewing the world from a point of view that is not your own, you become more empathetic.

Reading is a way to escape your own life, and can take you to faraway lands, other times, and put you in other people's shoes.
