| Introduction | As C.S. Lewis once said, “A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children's story in the slightest.” A great story is both timeless and ageless. It crosses cultures and classes and, when truly great, defines a generation, society, and the way in which we view our world and place in it. This blog is devoted to those fearless writers who share their amazing stories with us. It is a small attempt to return some of the joy they've given us. As such, it is a "Negative-Free" zone... meaning, if you can't say something nice- hit the delete button!! |
