Learning to write is fun!

This book takes the process of learning to write and makes it fun for students. The idea of placing learning to write within the framework of a sports metaphor works for this book aimed at middle schoolers. Looking back on my own experience with learning how to write, I really wish these lessons had been around; my teachers and classmates would have applauded. Andrew Larson, Indiana Communications Major
