Writing in rhyme for kids

If you want to write children's stories in rhyme I've published a post on Hubpages which gives you a few ideas - http://johnnyparker.hubpages.com/hub/Writing-in-rhyme-for-childrens-picture-books

The story for The Lazy Seagull was written in rhyme because I think it adds extra interest to the story and helps the narrative to flow. Kids like words that have a sing song quality. Plus I like rhyme and I get a buzz out of making it work. It's not as difficult as you might think and there are online dictionaries which will find a rhyme for you. Job done!

    Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad and tested to


    see if it can survive a 25 foot drop, just so she can be a
    youtube sensation. My

    apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views.

    The very root of your writing whilst sounding reasonable

    at first, did not work well with me after some time. Someplace within the paragraphs

    you actually were able to make me a believer unfortunately only for a very
    short while. I still have got a problem with your jumps in
    logic and you would do nicely to help fill in all those breaks.
    When you actually can accomplish that, I could certainly be amazed.

    I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own blog and was curious what all is

    needed to get set up? I'm assuming having a blog like yours would cost
    a pretty penny? I'm not very

    internet savvy so I'm not 100% sure. Any tips or advice

    would be greatly appreciated. Appreciate it

    Hi there just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few
    of the

    images aren't loading correctly. I'm not sure why but I think its a
    linking issue. I've tried it in

    two different browsers and both show the same outcome.
