All-school Writing Prompt

Have you ever read “The True Story of the Three Little Pigs” by Jon Scieszka? It is the story of the 3 little pigs told from the point of view of the big bad wolf. Point of view means the perspective of the person (narrator) who is telling the story. There are other stories told from surprising points of view including “The Day the Crayons Quit” told from the crayon’s point of view, and “The Giving Tree” told from the tree’s point of view.

Think about your favorite childhood story or fairy tale. Retell the story from a DIFFERENT character’s point of view. Think about telling Cinderella from the Stepsister’s point of view, Jack and the Beanstalk told by the giant, Goldilocks told by one of the three bears… the possibilities are endless! Try this challenge over winter vacation and turn in your story to the office when we get back. Stories will be collected until January 15th, then we will display them for everybody to see!

Happy writing!
