Book four of the eight in the Writing is a Process series of children’s picture books presents the idea of editing to young authors. This is one of the least popular steps in any writing process, but this story, written in the lyrical rhyme that is Terri Kelley’s signature style, is told from a child’s point of view. The young girl tells about editing her own story and shows readers that it can be fun. Included in this book are the frequently used editing marks so that students and teachers may refer to it when needed. As with all of the books in this series, the illustrations are outstanding and will keep readers coming back for more.
