Chris Van Allsburg (author of books like Jumanji and The Polar Express) put together a great book called The Chronicles of Harris Burdick. In this book, he illustrates a picture and has a famous author write a story based on the picture. So, I plan to include a few of the pictures as writing ideas throughout the summer. I will post a picture and see what you can come up with for a story based on the picture. Study the picture carefully and brainstorm what sort of story you can create out of it. Here is the first picture:
This picture is titled "The House on Maple Street" - You may use this as the title for your story, or choose something else.
