Why didn't we learn this in highschool? vital necessity! September 26, 2006
29 out of 29 found this review helpful
No wonder writing was so tedious and difficult in highschool and college. Teachers expected us to magically develop style while incorporating learned grammar via osmosis. Guess what? Style needs to be taught. This book is the answer, one of several by Pellegrino which is a must for writers of all ages, not just professors and professional authors, but for secondary students and also elementary teachers. It's never too soon to teach how to move from one paragraph to the next, how to begin a story: from the ending, the middle or the beginning, for a multitude of reasons and effects. This is a quick read and handy reference, neatly organized with short but well explained chapters with concrete, helpful examples.
