Creative writing - short stories for children

We are looking to create a series of 10+ picture-books (2,000 words) for children ages 2 to 4 (non-readers). We have developed something of a template for the stories and the characters and have already written a synopsis for 5+ stories. We would like assistance in the writing of the stories. Our hope is to create a fun series with illustrations (a la fairy tale) for “non-readers” with a couple young characters learning basic concepts in “economics” in (1) their everyday lives or (2) their imaginations -- like the Backyardigans. (The child being read to doesn’t need to know they’re learning about economics.) Crib notes will explain the concepts to the parent/teacher. Examples of concepts would be: goods and services, wants and needs, decision making and choice, scarcity, reward and benefit, etc. This would be a ghostwriting relationship, where payment would be on a per story basis. If we can, together, come up with a high quality product, we have a “Phase #2” with more advanced concepts for children ages 5-8 (e.g., consumers buy things from producers, opportunity cost, division of labor, spending and buying, barter, etc.) The overarching premise of “the initiative” is to build a resource for parents/caregivers to prepare children early-on about communicating about the world around them. In so doing, the theory is that when parents read (and re-read) literature to their children (and repeat the lessons in basic-economics) the immediate benefits to the children include (1) bonding with the parents, (2) improved language skills, and (3)improved self-esteem related to the parents display of satisfaction. We are looking for someone who has a great creative breath and imagination that will engage parents and children.(You don't need to be an economist to get the lesson(s) across.) We want parents to want to pass this story along to their friends to share the experience. We want children to think of the characters as extensions of their own lives/[login to view URL] lessons need to be veiled by fables (e.g., 3 little pigs, princesses, castles, giants, small talking woodland creatures, fairy godmothers, singing crickets and dwarfs, sewing bluebirds, and magic beans). Please do not bid without mentioning what you bring to this project. It requires a creative mind and someone that can live up to deadlines. In your bid, please include some of your initiatial thoughts about the project, as well as similar projects that you have worked on in the past.
