I'm publishing a book...

...and I want to know if you like it! Help me!

I first got the idea at school. The teacher gave us each a picture of a person, young or old, and we were supposed to create a character using the picture. Mine was a young boy with blue eyes and blonde hair, so I wrote down some things about him. Then the teacher told us to create a story of the person we made. It could either be a day in the life of our person or our person that has a problem.

Well I wrote a very cool story about my guy, Dave. Then I realized it would make a good book. Not a big chapter book, just a small little picture book all would enjoy. I plan to call it: The Best Thing That Ever Happened to Dave. So far it's in my school binder that I brought home, and then I will type it onto a Microsoft Word. Then I will print it out and send it to a publisher!

This is not all that I have so far, but dad was rushing me so I only had time to write this:

It was a breezy fall afternoon when the best thing to Dave happened. Dave was a five year old boy living in Ohio. But he was not with his parents. Dave had not been with his parents for three years. He had lived in a Foster home.

Dave sat on his bed and looked at a picture of his two parents. Then he looked at another one. It was a picture of his mom and her pregnant belly. Dave knew that it was him swimming in her body. Then he looked at one last picture of his two parents. Dave's father was holding him in his hands. Dave looked at his baby self, then looked at his two smiling parents.

Dave had not remembered his parents at all, nor the tragic day they died. Dave was ...

If you cant amaze them with your personality, amaze them with stupidity.

Sounds like a cool idea! My advice would be to get as many people as you can to read it (in person) and see what they think, it's much easier to give feedback in person than over the internet.
