The Creativity Project: An Awesometastic Story Collection Edited by Colby Sharp

Imagine your favorite authors. R.J. Palacio, Kate Messner, Dan Santat, Lemony Snicket, Dav Pilkey, Jennifer Holm, Laurie Keller, etc. Now imagine these authors challenging each other to write short stories by sending writing prompts to each other.

The Creativity Project is the result of those challenges! Each story begins with the prompt, which is often as creative as the response. Some are drawings; some are photographs; some are written story starters. In turn, anything goes for the story responses! Some are comics; some are illustrations; some are poems; some are short stories.

Possibly even better than all that, these very same authors have created writing prompts for you! The end of the book is a collection of prompts for you to use to create your own stories!

The Creativity Project is creativity at its finest! I recommend it for mid to upper elementary students who appreciate the opportunity to create without limitations.
