I have always wanted to write a book. Recently I have been more interested in writing children's books. When I see some of the books in the children's section I think to myself I can do that. I just don't know where to begin and how to make mine unique and not the same story lines as many others. Any ideas on the writing process, where to go for some advice?

There are many sites in the internet and you may try writershelper.com I wanted to write a children's book out of the first 3 books of the Holy Bible but I have no time because of my translation work. I hope you get your subject from these books and there are so many that you can get here. They are source of wisdom and our basic knowledge of everything comes from these. These are very good for children.
I am a Christian, a child of God, baptized into Christ on October 1, 1989 and I belong to the Church of Christ founded and headed by Christ as shown in Acts Chapter 2. I am given the gift of knowledge and understanding Bible Greek and I translate the Word of God from Greek to
English PLAINLY - Greek word into its English equivalent with additional words for grammar purposes written in italics so that readers may delete them as the wish.
I have already published GENESIS, EXODUS, LEVITICUS (Greek-English), THE WILL New Testament (Greek to English), ELEMENTS of SALVATION, The Right Way, GOD, ORIGIN, TRANSFER into PERFECTION, GREEK-ENGLISH (Grammar & Vocabulary), WORDS in THE WILL New Testament, and others shown at

I have seen the versions being circulated worldwide and they are generally admitted to be 80% NOT translations. My translations are 99.99% translations and I see the truth, beauty, and sweetness of the Word of God. I hope these books could also help people understand the Word of God and be saved. May God bless you.

Children's books serves as a great adjunctive tool during a child's formative years. They serve as an inspiration and motivation as well as a gear towards self expression. One thing you could do is to look back on personal experiences way back when you were a kid. All the good things and the bad things that helped to mold who you are now. If you can't dig deep enough for inspiration from your own experiences...you have friends and family members whom you can interview and derive ideas from. Kids from your time and kids today are basically the same....all go through the same phases of childhood. Look within you heart and see what you think will benefit kids the most. Goodluck on your journey.
