Secrets and Stories
Author Wendelin Van Draanen hopes her new book, The Secret Life of Lincoln Jones, encourages kids to write their own stories.
After moving to a new town, 11-year-old Lincoln Jones is having a(n) 　1　 time at his new school. As the 　2　 kid at school, making friends is not an easy task. Having to spend most of his time with the old—at a nursing home where his mum works, Lincoln retreats (撤退) into his 　3　 to read and find heroes. He also spends much of his time 　4　 secrets into his notebook. However, with the help of a new friend and a school writing centre, Lincoln discovers real-life heroes. 
The Secret Life of Lincoln Jones takes readers on a funny and fantastic journey as Lincoln comes to understand what's important in life. Van Draanen spoke to a reporter about the book.
What was the inspiration(灵感) 　5　 this book? 
My 　6　 was in an elder-care home. It was after she passed away that I realised there was a story about old people and the caregivers when someone can't 　7　 themselves anymore.  
There are many interesting characters(角色) in the book. Were any of them based on people you know?
I have been with 　8　 my whole life! I have my own children and I was a teacher for fifteen years. When I was a 　9　, my students would help me to think about my characters. When I had children, I saw life through the eyes of 　10　. It was fresh. 
　　What lesson do you hope this book will teach kids?
There are 　11　 lessons. The first is that the old were once 　12　, too! They have a lifetime of stories and 　13　 we should get to know. The second is how Lincoln uses his 　14　 to feel better about things and how his writing helps. 　15　 can be very good for shy people. It can also be a fun way to let your imagination (想象力) come out.
