For me...I'd love a creative granola bar recipe! For me, though, there doesn't seem to be enough at stake emotionally in this story. I like the fact that he creatively solves his own problem, it's just that the problem doesn't feel very compelling. There needs to be more conflict.<br /><br /><br />Also, I'm not sure this needs to be a picture book, necessarily. Think about what the pictures are bringing to the story - if there are a lot of scenes of Quentin in the kitchen cooking, that's not much variety in terms of the visual story being told. It sounds like it could make quite a good magazine story, though. I know Highlights and High Five publish recipes all the time - maybe they would go for a story with a recipe attached.Carrie Finisonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007703247358638748.post-58068445172334156072013-06-28T20:40:12.266-04:002013-06-28T20:40:12.266-04:00Thanks for your thoughts for Alicia, Rosi, and yes...Thanks for your thoughts for Alicia, Rosi, and yes, it is a lovely, lovely place to be...
