Monday, May 02, 2005 Observations on Children's Writing and Illustrating I’ve been busy creating some new pieces for my portfolio pages, and preparing for Story-time at my local library. I will be the stand in for the month of May. All of this has me doing quite a bit of research. I read almost every picture book I own, a considerable amount, to select ones that read well to a young group. I pulled out my Picture-Book 2004, and went through it with a fine toothed comb to come up with ideas for coloring pages - and I’m learning some new things. From my reading, I’m learning there are some noticeable themes in children’s books. Yes, we all know about fairies and good-night books, but I’ve been surprised to find some not so obvious themes: Acting Out, Dinosaurs, Dragons, Farm Life (usually from the animals’ point of view), Urban life, Dogs and Cats, Wild Animals, Holidays, Bed time, Bath time, and Dreams. I’m also realizing there are holes in some of these categories. For instance, there aren’t enough books about aliens or pirates. I try to fill in with songs and poems, even storytelling, for my Story-time program. But I really have to stretch to keep on theme in some areas. Before I talk about my art research let me mention, I do feel like I’ve gone through a growth period recently with my art. It always seems to work like that . . . you cruise along with your skills on a flat plain for several months or even years, when suddenly *zwooop* - up you go to a new plain of skills. The neat thing to me is, suddenly, I feel like I’m looking at art through new eyes. I’m noticing things I didn’t notice even 6 months ago.

Where can I find a list of word requirements for writing children's books? According to The Complete Idiot's Guide to Publishing Children's Books by Harold Underdown and Lynne Rominger, "In most cases, you can just sit down and write your story, using your judgment about vocabulary. But some series, easy readers in particular, are built around a carefully selected vocabulary list ... If a publisher's guidelines call for a controlled vocabulary, then use their word list. You can assume that most children's publishers don't care about this, however." Seedling Publications uses the Guided Reading and Reading Recovery levels to categorize their books but according to the 2003 Children's Writers and Illustrator's Market they don't require authors to adhere to a specific vocabulary list. Unfortunately they don't post writer's guidelines at their web site.
