I have had two high school students now and it is easier to spot a great resource after we have looked for or pieced together other writing resources. I don't like to gush during reviews - but I have to give an opinionated hard sell on this writer's handbook. I have used it this fall as an excellent reference for language arts, grammar, style usage, punctuation and topic sentence outline. My son has used it for his essay models while writing for college. I am currently teaching 4th-7th grade ELA - English Language Arts along with 10th grade high school English and reviewing my 3rd year college son's work. I have this handbook downloaded to my Google drive for quick easy reference from any device. I know you will want handy access as well. From a review by Angie at Pebblekeeper.
