childHOOD stories

1. stories are important to childhood because they teache lessons. people read stories to their kids you develop their imagination or because they'rre babysitting the kid and have nothing else to do. kids get fun out of this experience, they tend to enjoy it. they can imagine the story intheir head while its beingtold. imsorrythespacebaronthiscomputerismessedup.
kids learn lessons like dont be greedy and share and be nice/kind. whayt they learn fromtheexperience is that the person who is readingtothem cares about therm.

2. older people read stories for the smae reason....to escape from reality and fly away with theirimaginations. when you read crzy thingsyouimagine them and sometimes thatr provokes you imagine other crazy things. which isalways fun. im nnot sure what theylearn, probably similar, more adult versions ofthelessons little kids get from their storybooks.

3. theyb are importnat becausethey are partofeducation. it adds tot he nations identity by showing that we have afirm focus oneducation.
books are good for discussion when they are about or dealwith important or issues. stories allow people to i-m-a-g-i-n-e.


4. i dont really remember stories from my childhood. the tales i remember were from disney videos. like snow white, cinderella, and bambi..?
disney movies stand out because they are interesting, funny, and colorful. i connect stories with past babysitters and people who haveread them tome.


5.

1. it is captivating, enthralling, and interesting.
it makes you wantto read on page after page. a page turner youmight say.

2. should include solid characters. well rounded, complex characters that do well rounded,complex things.

3. good, fine plot. should not have a ton ofmadness goingon. there should probably be some structure to the events going on.

4. should include conflict. conflict spices things up.

5. teach a lesson. teach you somethingsometime usually thiscomes at the end but i'm fine with it being anywhere.

6. pace. the story should flow. not have super intense parts then dull dull dull parts following or sandwiching the parts of exitement.

7. setting. a story should have a swell setting. haha sorry i really hadto say that.

anyways, a story should paint a clear picture of not only the setting but also the characters.
