What You’ll Learn
You’ve probably heard of narrative nonfiction, but did you know that there are four other kinds of nonfiction for children? And that studies show most kids enjoy reading them as much as or more than narrative titles? Stewart will break down the five categories of nonfiction, explain which categories are in greatest demand, and share info on agents and publishers who are most interested in each kind.
