The trick to a great story is to put ordinary characters of any species into extraordinary situations, climb into their world and go with what you find there, however outrageous or weird it might be.

It is to do with creative writing, the imagination, lateral and logical thinking. And there are no hard and fast rules on how to complete the tasks. There are no right or wrong answers either, so everyone succeeds, whatever they do or don’t do.

This one is a challenging exercise, and one for you to do as well when working with children who are reluctant to write.
