Synopsis
So begins the story of Helen Lester, author of Tacky the Penguin and many other popular books for children. By sharing her struggles as a child and later as a successful author, she demonstrates that hurdles are part of the process. She even gives writing tips, such as keeping a "fizzle box." Helen Lester uses her unique ability to laugh at her mistakes to create both a guide for young writers and an amusing personal story of the disappointments and triumphs of a writer's life.

- g***r (659)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseOwner tried to help.
- n***r (25)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseIt’s been over a month since I ordered this book and they still haven’t even shipped it. When I contacted them asking when it would be shipped, they made some lame excuse and still have not shipped it when we’re supposed to be shipped within 10 days. When I tried to get my money back, they refused to give it back. Do not buy from this person ever!
- a***i (18)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseDO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER. The book I ordered took two weeks to arrive. I contacted the seller -- who wrote back, initially, to ask for more information -- and then heard NOTHING. I have no choice but to leave a bad review, as I am unable to get my money back and no longer need the book.
