The Art of Teaching Writing

I thought that this was an interesting book. It's an easy read, but at over 500 pages it takes awhile to get through. I thought that the first part of the book was the best. When it begins to break into the different genres in Section 4, I began to lose interest. I really liked the chapters on setting up a writing workshop, but would have liked to see a schedule of how it could work in a classroom. Overall, I recommend this book.
