Children's Book Help?

Full question:

I'm in honors English 10 and was required to write a children's book and was looking for any advice you could offer :) Many years go, deep in a village known as Arrowhead, lived a young Indian boy destined to be a hero. His name was Anca, he was short, weak, easily frightened, but also very intelligent. All these traits were very uncommon for the villagers in his area. Despite being different, Anca wanted to be known as something special instead of being known as the Village Chief’s son. He wanted people to think of him as a leader, just like the savior Jesus Christ was to his Christian believers. When the time came to do the village’s monthly hunt, Anca wanted to go. His father, the chief, would not let him. He said that Anca was too weak and that he was not yet ready to go hunting. Anca begged and begged but his father did not budge. Upset, Anca went to his mom and offered to help her do chores. His mother asked him to go to the forest to pick some berries and hang up clothes to dry. Anca arrived to the forest and noticed three suspicious men lurking in the shadows. He laid down and secretly listened to their conversation. “This village is weak”, one man said. “We can easily take control and steal all of there food.” After hearing these words Anca instinctively knew that he had to take action. He quietly placed a trap on the ground with the rope his mother gave him. Just as he finished laying down the trap the three men spotted him. They ran towards him but were lifted off their feet when they stepped on the trap. Filled with joy that his plan worked, Anca screamed with joy. His noise alerted other villagers which lured them over to where he was. The village chief stepped up and congratulated his son. He then let down one of the captured men to ask them why they were here. The men told Anca’s dad that they would not leave until the village was under their control. Knowing that the men were dangerous, Anca’s dad told the men that the village would offer food to the men every month as long as they do not target the village again. After saving the village from complete extinction Anca was proud of himself. He conquered his fears and proved that it does not take strength to become a real warrior. A real warrior outwits his enemies and shows no sign of weakness. The warrior within Anca was not the son of the village’s chief, but the Savior of the village known as Arrowhead. I know the punctuation is off in places and im gonna fix that i was just in a rush to type this before i write the final copy the story is called "the warrior within" Thanks for the advice i put the jesus reference because my teacher said we needed to have an allusion

Best answer:

I think its a very good story, the only thing i would change is your reference to jesus christ only because you shouldnt have religion in a childs book, what if a jewish kid wants to read it and doesnt understand and you have to give a whole explination. I would change that part and write about how they look at his father, the chief, as a leader because of all the things he has done like hunting a lion that tormented the village and things like that in place of it.

What kind of artifacts might you find if you dug in your yard?

Full question:

We have ancient Indian mounts less than a mile from my village. I often thought of digging in my back yard, as my lot is in the middle of long ago camps. A plaque in a yard just 2 blocks from here is where a treaty was made in the early 1800's. I know I would have found arrowheads, etc. If I thought I could find a T-Rex or a mastodon, I would be tearing up the whole lot. It's possible up here. Oops....typo.....should be ancient Indian mounds, as in burial mounds.

Best answer:

I live in a small town in Italy and they have found roman columns and other items from ancient roman times here. I would love to dig up an ancient roman coin or even a remnant of pottery. It would be very exciting for me as I love history.

Critique my plot and characters, please?

Full question:

I'm preparing characters and a plot for NaNoWriMo (yes, you're allowed to do that). Please take a look at it! I want good, constructive criticism. Title: Inferno (part one of a four-part series called Haven) Genre: Fantasy Setting: A largish land called Lunaea. It's a large peninsula split from the mainland by a curved mountain range, so all the people in Lunaea know is Lunaea. There are four territories, and to each a tribe and a certain specie of dragon. There's Pyrusia, where dwell the 'fire' tribe and dragons. That territory encompasses the end of a horseshoe-shaped mountain range where a volcano sleeps. The volcano is called Mount Valwyn. In the middle of this mountain range, at the 'top' of the horseshoe, lives the 'air' tribe and their dragons, the Ventuus tribe. They live on the face of the mountainside. On the tapering end of the mountain range (opposite side of Pyrusia) is a forest. This is where the 'earth' tribe and their dragons live. I've yet to think of a name for this territory. On the coast of the peninsula lives the Aquarcene people and their dragons. This is the 'water' tribe. Characters: Chrysanthemum (Chrys for short): She is a 14-year-old Pyrusian, and is arranged to be married to the chief's son. She's a bit tall, and has an athletic build. Her lower-back-length brownish-red hair is wavy, but very frizzy, and is usually kept in one to four braid(s) so it won’t get irreparably tangled. Her eyes are what she calls light-dark-brown. Chrys loves swimming, and so does her dragon, despite their Pyruse allegiance. Chrys is shy but loves to have fun. Her dragon’s name is Tallulah (Lu). Lu is a bright rusty colour, and has ice-blue eyes. The dragon enjoys flight and the thrill of the hunt. Lu is only about 7 months old, but already she is about the size of a large dog. She loves to play and can be trusting to a fault. Chrys’ weapon of choice is the bow. The arrowheads are Lu’s shed scales, only sharpened. Chrys’ quiver is lionhide (mountain lion) dyed dark brown. She also uses a dagger with an amethyst blade. Alexander (Alex): Alex is a 15-year-old Aquarcenan. He’s tall and lanky, with has straight black hair that’s almost shoulder-length and curls into a fringe at the end. He has blue eyes. He and his dragon love swimming and fishing. He’s real tanned. Alex is an easygoing and agreeable boy, but is something of a troublemaker. He enjoys sneaking up on people and stealing their things (he returns them later, of course). Aldin, his dragon, is a sky blue colour, and has yellow eyes. He's already three years old, but only as large as a rattlesnake. He likes to hang on Alex’s neck and shoulders. Alex’s favourite weapon is a spear. The tip is made from a dead dragon's tooth. And then there are a bunch of secondary characters but I want room to type for the plot. Plot: During a time of remote peace, Farja, the Pyruse dragon elder (basically the leader of the dragons, except he answers to the human chief guy) secretly sends a few of his closer dragons to attack a village in Aquarcia and Ventuus. This stirs up hostility between the territories, and things happen, and a war threatens to start. While all of this is happening, Chrys and Lu find a little cove where they start going to escape from the world. They end up calling it the Haven. Then, one day, a boy and his dragon from Aquarcia discover the cove too--Alex and Aldin. Chrys and Alex become friends, and start visiting Haven every week to hang out. But then the war starts, and they can't visit Haven anymore because they are to fight in the battles. One day before the chaos starts, Lu is in the volcano with the other Pyruse dragons and overhears Farja talking to his son about how his plans are unfolding nicely and what he has arranged to happen next. She is noticed and Farja threatens that if Lu tells anyone what she's heard, that when the rebellion starts Chrys will be the first to die. Lu has no idea what the rebellion is, but she's afraid for her and Chrys' life so she keeps the secret. The book ends with Chrys and Lu marching off with their fellow warriors to do battle. SO! I'd like your thoughts. I also need ideas for something to go in the middle so it's not super boring. Thank you in advance! EDIT: @cathrl69 What I've got here is a really basic outline for the first draft. And I did, in case you missed it, ask for ideas for conflict to put in the middle, because that'll mostly be the two main characters getting to know each other and that will probably get boring real fast. But I do believe I need more plot. I've got a couple things written down to see if I could make them work, so you can count on this getting longer. :P

Best answer:

I think you're massively overestimating how much plot you have here. I'd guess you'll get one chapter per paragraph - so they'll go off to do battle at the start of chapter 4 (maybe 10,000 words in), not the end of the book.

Tribal Rites resumed thanks to Fredric, please comment?

Full question:

In the deserts of the American Southwest where the ruins of adobe villages still stand, worked clay made majestic by the hard work of ancient hands, I have found broken arrowheads and seen devils twirling up from the sands. the plans of Spirit undermined, copper, silver veins and explosives, Gold rushed dreams into a state of dust, lust and greed now colored light, neon. Aeons ahead of faked rapture as the raptor seized its prey it laughs at the recipients of Promethius' gift, and it lifts a still-living snake that once coiled around my thigh, whispering secret things...spread your wings, sweet vulture of innocence take the thing back to dawn of creation I crawl into my cave to redraw a new existence, etch a God upon the walls, withdrawn, praying that the sacred feeling might return someday... Written by L.C. Firecat (c)2011all rites preserved

Best answer:

Well I will thank Fredric for bringing this forward and I will thank you for one of your most beautiful and brilliant pieces. This has so much character, its flow, its rhymes, the very heart that draws the reader in and leaves this reader in awe.
