Fraidy Cats’ Book of Courage – An eBook of Writing Prompts

Make Beliefs Comix is a creative writing platform that I have recommended for years. The core of Make Beliefs Comix is a free set of tools that students can use to create their own comics in multiple languages. Here’s a video overview of how it works. In addition to the comic strip creation tools, Make Beliefs Comix hosts free ebooks that you can use online or download for free. All of ebooks are designed as fillable PDFs that your students can write in.

The latest ebook published by Make Beliefs Comix is titled Fraidy Cats’ Book of Courage. The first half of the book contains comics featuring the title character talking about situations that make him scared and ideas for dealing with those feelings. The second half of Fraidy Cats’ Book of Courage contains pages for students to write on in response to prompts like “people who inspire me and courage me to be braver…”

Applications for Education
Comics can make reading and writing seem less intimidating to some students. Free ebooks like Fraidy Cats’ Book of Courage can be useful in generating approachable writing prompts for elementary school students.
