Writing Prompts

Want to write a story or poem? Take a look at these photos and other pics of animals on my website. Pick one, then use the questions below to help you get your imagination going.

  • What is this animal thinking?
  • What adventure would this animal like to take?
  • Who is this animal’s best friend? Why are they best friends?
  • What if this animal used to be your human best friend?
  • What problem might this animal have or what trouble might it get into?
  • What might this animal do to solve their problem or get out of trouble?
  • Does this animal have a super power?
  • Does this animal have an enemy or someone who causes them trouble?
  • If this animal had a job, what would it be?
  • What kind of animal holiday might this animal celebrate?
  • What is this animal’s favorite hobby, favorite subject in school, favorite sport, or favorite snack?
  • Does this animal have a special talent?
  • What is this animal most afraid of?
  • Does this animal have a bad habit?
  • Does this animal make rude noises with its armpit or sing in the bath tub or do something else you love (or hate) to do?
