This is a GREAT resource! My son attended a homeschool co-op (for 3 years) that focused very heavily on writing and he learned NONE of what is taught in this book. I highly recommend this for every kid, especially those who want nothing to do with language arts or writing. My son's writing has become more powerful and concise since using the simple tips in this book. The 'rules of three' make communicating the written word so much easier to accomplish.
