Chapters are rooted in key elements of storytelling and are subdivided into sections that employ clever categorizations that help jump-start creativity. In fact, every aspect of The Storyteller's Illustrated Dictionary contains and conveys originality, craft, creativity and high quality, making it all the more effective at instilling these attributes in budding wordsmiths!
