| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Writing fact for the younger generation takes a special kind of attention to detail and presentation of material. Writers in the non-fiction market of children's literature must attack biographies, histories, essays and scientific findings with the utmost honesty for young readers. This book looks at the types of non-fiction writing most common for children, and some of the best writers of the genre. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. |
