A promising debut by Abby Hanlon, a former first-grade teacher who does delightful childlike drawings. USA Today Nothing ever happens to Ralph. So every day when its time to write stories, Ralph thinks really hard. He stares at his paper. He stares at the ceiling. But he has no stories! With the help of his classmates, Ralph realizes that a great story can be about something very littleand that maybe he really does have some stories to tell. Debut author/illustrator Abby Hanlons endearing text and charming watercolor and colored pencil illustrations prove that writing can be fun! This story works nicely with Lucy Calkins Writers Workshop model of teaching.
