How to Structure a Picture Book Plot That Works

Описание: Picture book plot structure is simpler than many authors think, but it must be built on the right foundation. If your story feels flat or mechanical, the issue is often structure.⁣
⁣
In this video, we look at the three essential pillars of a strong picture book plot: desire, conflict, and resolution. You will see why starting with character creates deeper, more believable stories, and how obstacles keep young readers engaged.⁣
⁣
A story where everything goes smoothly is boring. Children connect with characters who want something, face challenges, and grow through the process. When the main character solves the problem themselves, the ending feels earned and satisfying.⁣
This video will help you strengthen your story structure so your manuscript has clarity, tension, and emotional impact.⁣
