(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Jim Paillot. Using characters from his My Weird School series as guides, Gutman walks readers through the basic paces of writing, from idea sources to secondary characters. The structure of Gutman's advice is telling (e.g., his lessons on grammar come after the discussion of getting published), but his tone is both humorous and straightforward, and aspiring authors will surely find points of inspiration.
