The Chronicles of Harris Burdick: 14 Amazing Authors Tell the Tales by Chris Van Allsburg

4.0

I have loved the idea of THE MYSTERIES OF HARRIS BURDICK for as long as I can remember. Drawings with a brief starter prompt... I had every intention of using them for writing exercises when I was planning on teaching English based solely on the scope of what could be written for each photo. So, when a friend bought me THE CHRONICLES OF HARRIS BURDICK for Christmas, I was amped to read it.

The genre of stories range from decidedly MG to YA, and they run the gamut from sci fi to fantasy to supernatural in small ways.

I don't want to spoil too much, but my favorite stories are my favorite, "Just Desert" (M.T. Anderson), and "Another Place, Another Time" (Cory Doctorow).

Definitely enjoyed this.
