In order to make sure you fully understand the hero cycle, you will write a story which contains each part of the cycle. Then you will take that story and create a children’s book.

The story can be about anything you want as long as it is school appropriate and child friendly. The story MUST contain each aspect of the hero cycle. Once the story is written you need to turn the story into a children’s book with colorful illustrations and drawings.

Remember, this is a children’s book so do not use over complicated language. Also, children have a hard time reading long paragraphs, so make sure you space out your paragraphs on each page. Your audience will be children 7 and under.
