I have 3 boys who dislike writing. It's frustrating to get them to think of ideas to write about even in their daily school journals. This book makes thinking of ideas fun and helps to know how to write them. I borrowed Writers Express from a friend after being told it was great. I then purchased Write Source 2000, as I was unsure of the age appropriateness. Write Source 2000 is great for 6th grade and above because it is less cartoon-like and has higher level information. Writers Express is perfect for 2nd grade and above. Much of the information is overlapping, but written age-appropriately.

It's not often that a middle schooler wants to buy a reference book. When our daughter saw her younger brother's book it reminded her of its value when she was in his grade. Not only did she request that we buy the book, she requested a hard cover copy because the soft cover had worn significantly on her school copy. She wants to be able to use it for some time to come.

If you are into creative writing, creative critical thinking or just enjoy learning something new every day this book is one of the best I've ever picked up. It's written for and geared towards young people which is why I think it turns out to be such a great reference. The book has great graphics and charts and is overall just fun to read and absorb.

Wonderful textbook!I teach a summer writer's workshop for grades 6-9 & the text is a great guide through our curriculum of poetry, personal narrative, report writing , & one-act play.
