Writing Unbound

How Fiction Transforms Student Writers

Beschreibung

"The author makes the case for teaching and allowing middle and high school English students to write fiction, a genre that fades away in the upper grades. This is the writing students want to do, and their practice of writing fiction strengthens all types of writing in the end"--
