10 pages is not long. You do not mention what age children's book, so why not do a (mostly) picture book? Write a short poem about the first day of kindergarten and illustrate it with either colorful drawings or with collages from magazines, et al.? One or two lines of poetry per page (rhyming couplets would be good) means you only have to write a twenty-line poem.

Its your work and I guess its your homework! Just get on with it instead of spending your time asking stupid questions over the net! You got the base of your story in "kids first day at school" so just get on with doing and outline and then writing about what happend. Youll have time if you take yourself time! A few tips: With only 10 pages you need to be brutal candid and short in everything you write. Concentrate your story. A good story is about having people being active and making decisions, decisions that give them some consekvenses. So for a good 10 page story I would recomend one critical (story dependent decision) and some minor decisions. Just ading information want do. Let your main caracter make decisions and tell the reader how important that decision is for him or her (a decision could be what to have for lunch or to choice who to sit next to for example). KIPS (Keep It Personal, Stupid) rules. Let the story be about one kid (or the teacher or whatever) and let the reader follow him or her. Before you start, always do an outline and work with it. Johan.
