Reviews

There is much to commend in this readable, nicely illustrated guide... This book is a step in the right direction towards empowering teachers to give children autonomy as writers. It has the virtue of setting out a clear rubric for teaching, based upon largely sound principles. - Francis Gilbert, Teaching English (NATE)
