Grab some paper and a writing utensil. (Not a banana, silly. Try a pencil or pen.) Or if you have one of those fancy computer doohickeys, use that. Now, tell me…
If YOU were king or queen, what laws would you make—or break?
When you’re done writing your chapter, share it with your teacher and your family, and, of course, your friends. (Don’t forget your pets. Pets like to hear stories, too, you know.)
And if you’re feeling particularly adventurous, send your story to the author. He’ll get a kick out of them. (No, really, I’ll give him a kick. Honestly. Wait… I’m the author, so I would have to kick myself. Never mind. No kicks. But send me your stories.)
