This valuable book teaches writing through targeting specific skills, among which are: “Show, Don’t Tell,” Using Sensory Words, Strong vs. Weak Verbs, Staying Focused, Pacing, etc. While I found the clip art out of date, the rest of the material presented is direct, easily applied, and will appeal to your young writers. There are reproducible Checklists, Feedback Opportunities, and, importantly, Writing Practices that students will relate to easily. Forney covers a great deal of what you need to get your classes writing better and more coherently, while making sure they enjoy it at the same time.
