Starting in 2003, the Young Author Club follows students from their specialized workshops under the Young Author’s Scheme to a unique three-month mentoring process to witness the completion of a storybook, including a dedication, blurb and by-line. Averaging 3000 words each, these stories extend beyond the realm of an eleven-year old and are now available for sale through Janus Education. They can be found in Singapore’s national libraries.

Disc 3: Stories about Friendship
