Five Seattle Stories by Seattle Kids, 2nd ed. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798992147926)

Tales written and illustrated by 28 children ages 7-12, with the help of authors in a pro bono Seattle writing workshop over five terms of collective effort. Each chapter follows the plot of a classic fairytale or story from the USA, China, France, Scotland, or Martinique; we actually rewrote the originals in our own language. Set in Seattle city streets, parks and waterways, and dealing with struggles we all share, these tales will surprise you. As if they happened right next door...

They will make you laugh!

And they will give you hope.
