This was such a cute read! Its a perfect book for kids who are starting to learn to write or even middle school aged kids who are starting to learn essays! I would definitely purchase this book for my son!

Thank you NetGalley and Capstone for the Advanced Reader Copy!

Gripping rhythm, stunning artwork, and a fantastic message. I cannot wait for my future children to read this one, and I'll be recommended it to my local library when it comes out as well. I think this would definitely instill an interest in writing in any kid.

I loved this book! Its diversity of children with such a strong message is refreshing. I would read it to my class and add it to my class library. The illustrations are beautiful.

I will recommend that my colleagues get copies of this book. It’s an especially good book for the beginning of the year for teaching students why we write and helping them brainstorm ideas for future writing pieces.

Love! Love! Love! I love this book so much.

The rhyming pattern is smooth and unforced, so it has a wonderful, unstuttered flow. The art is vibrant and celebratory. And the message about writing... Yes! I feel absolutely inspired. I want to write!

This is the perfect book for inspiring children—either those who already love to write, or those that might need a bit more of a nudge.

Everyone is a writer. They can write wherever they are, about whatever brings them joy, and make a difference in the world. The artwork is inclusive, the message sincere, and the rhyming on point. I can see this being a great mentor text for young readers and writers. I hope to snag a physical copy for my bookshelf after it is published in January.

Until then I am grateful for NetGalley and Capstone for providing me with a digital copy. Add this to your TBR. You are going to love it as much as I did.

Oh I really enjoyed this rhyming book that inspires and reassures children to write in all and any forms and for all reasons. For preschoolers and up, this book shows the power that writing can have and stresses that in terms of expression there is no right or wrong. I can see this book being a great read in a classroom to encourage anxious or reluctant students, and one on one, to motivate children to flex their writing muscle. The diversity in the illustrations didn't feel forced and tokenish because the text messaging is that all can write and be writers. I appreciated the inclusion of two visibly Muslim girls in the pictures and look forward to sharing this book with my kids and their classes when it is published.

This is a cute and encouraging book. I have never seen a book encouraging kids to write, and I love the idea! The pictures are also so pretty! I also love that writing prompts are included at the end of the book.

Are you looking for a book to engage and inspire young writers? This book offers an invitation to young writers to get out there and try writing in its many forms, mediums and in a way that works for the individual. The illustrations are bright and engaging along with the text.
This is a great book to use in an elementary classroom to engage kids in writing. This would be a perfect addition to classroom, school and public libraries.

Thank you Net Galley, Rebecca Gardyn Levington and Capstone for the opportunity to preview this title. The opinions expressed are my own.
The book is expected to be available Jan. 1, 2025.


I tried to post on Goodreads but I could not find this title.

Write Here, Write Now is the absolute perfect book for any child! As a mother of a Kindergartener who is just learning to write, I thought this was a beautiful message of how you don’t need to be perfect to be a writer, all you have to do is believe and just start! The illustrations in this book were also incredibly beautiful! This will absolutely be a book that I’d purchase and read to my daughter!

To be a writer, you just have to write! Love this young children's book encouraging early writer's to share their stories - any stories that pop in their creative minds! The illustrations throughout the book are captivating and colorful. I will certainly be recommending this book for my young niece!

As a reader, I truly hope my children grow to love reading and writing as much as I do. The beautiful illustrations in this book are paired with uplifting, encouraging words that inspire creativity in kids—a combination I absolutely love! I’ll definitely be picking up a copy when it’s released.

Thank you, NetGalley!

As an adult reader and a writer/aspiring author, this one brought tears to my eyes. I will absolutely be grabbing a copy and reading it to myself for inspiration, not to mention reading it to my kids. I struggle even calling myself a writer since I’m not published, but this book turns that on its head. I love the imagery and inclusiveness of all the different ways we can write and express ourselves. These are the kinds of books that can change the world! The illustrations are incredible and the perfect fit for this book.

Thank you so much to the author, illustrator, Capstone and NetGalley for the eARC in exchange for an honest review!

This book was just perfect! There aren’t a lot of books that I have read with my children about writing, and this book was so informative and empowering for them. The illustrations were captivating and the rhyming kept them engaged.

This children's book is such a positive piece to encourage kids to write and let their creativity flourish. The visuals are very pretty and vivid. It's inspiring and empowering.

I thought that this book was great and it is really inspirational too!

I thought that the book was well written and easy to follow and understand.
The book had some great illustrations to bring the book to life.

I loved the messages from the book and the encouragement that the author gives - go out and grab, or pick up your pencil and write! It has some great advice that can be used or young, or old too.

It is 5 stars from me for this one - very highly recommended!

What a cute poem on writing! I thought it was great encouraging children to put their thoughts down on paper!

My inner child needed this writing reminder today. I just know this would've been a book that inspired little me to immediately grab my pencil and start writing; even as an adult, it does the same.

I love that the advice goes beyond the 'rules' of writing, showing you can write however you want, whenever you want, with no restrictions. Such well-put poetry and such vibrant, fun illustrations! I really loved this and would recommend to all kiddos, especially the budding writers.
