Children are naturally curious and imaginative. It is this wonderful blend that makes them exceptionally creative. Unfortunately, they are not born with a good knowledge of grammar or writing mores. This comes only with age! On the other hand, creativity and the ability to write creatively dims with age due to lack of practice and a belief that one needs to "fit in"with societal norms of behavior.

Society often curbs creativity in people. Even children as young as five can be affected. Just one mocking gesture by a friend or even an older sibling can make a child stop dreaming. Soon inhibitions arise washing out all imagination. Even the stories and poems that are written in school fit into an expected model.

Lekha Publishers LLC. has developed a method to bring back imagination into daily life and writing. No thought process is wrong and there is no one right way to imagine. A cloud could be a paper to write on and a rock could be a meteor! At Lekha a child can be a child.

Lekha School of Creative Writing is committed to developing a generation of children who think out of the book! We do this by teaching them to write creatively using time tested and newly developed methods that stir one's imagination.

Through learning creative writing the Lekha Way, we believe that imagination and dreaming will be safe in the hands of future generations.
