Growing up Writing: Teaching Our Children to Write, Think, and Learn

Educational writer Arlene Silberman crisscrossed the country for three years in search of solutions to the writing dilemma that troubles the family, the school house, and the state house. This optimistic and challenging book will transform the way parents, teachers, and other taxpayers perceive education and in the process, restore the second "R" to its rightful place at home and in schools. Silberman shows us the vital connection that links writing, thinking, and learning, taking us into classrooms in every part of the country to show us how ordinary teachers are helping ordinary students become extraordinary writers.
