With this book, she shows teachers how to build skills in reading and writing major informational text typesinformative/explanatory, procedural/how-to, persuasive, nonfiction narrative, and biographicalthrough project-based instruction. Children read and write for real purposes and real audiences on topics that matter to them. In the process, they make a difference in the world.
