Absolute Truth
I have read many books on writing, but I have rarely agreed more with what an author was telling me. This book makes it clear why students are struggling with writing and what can be done about it.

Thoughtful and provocative with real examples of ways we can teach writing that actually speak to skills. Wonder what would happen if many writing teachers started to teach like this? Things wouldn't be worse...

I aspire to be as articulate and caring and principled when I teach as Warner is here in this book.
I did a ton of head-nodding / underlining / highlighting / dog-earing throughout.

From the description, I thought this would focus exclusively on the problems students face in writing classrooms, but instead it’s a largely anecdotal overview about the challenges facing education in general.
