A Julia Eccleshare Pick of the Month February 2023
Milo wants to write a story but he is not sure how to find a beginning. Luckily Mum is on hand to give him a good idea and Milo uses his great imagination to develop it. But Milo knows that all good stories need both a middle and an end. Where is he going to find them?
With more help from his Nana and his Dad Milo explores both and comes up with a story that captures the fun and excitement he had been looking for. Milo’s creativity takes place against the backdrop of his busy family. Who else would make a better audience to share it with.

About
How to Make a Story Synopsis
When Milo decides he's going to tell a story, it seems like a great idea. The only problem is that he's not sure how to start... what to put in the middle... or how to end it. With a little help from his family, some real-life inspiration, and a lot of imagination, Milo's story is soon off to a flying start. If only his little brother and sister weren't getting in the way. But then Milo learns the most important lesson of all about stories - that they are made to be shared.
With vibrant and energetic illustrations from Ana Gomez, this is the perfect follow up to How to Catch a Rainbow.
An imaginative exploration of the science of storytelling from the author of the bestselling The Perfect Fit and One More Try.
