Real-World Writers: A Handbook for Teaching Writing with 7-11 Year Olds by Ross Young

Real-World Writers will help teachers empower their pupils to write with pleasure and purpose, and with a sense of the relevance to their own lives beyond the classroom. These are vital ingredients for motivation and high achievement among young writers.

"There is much to commend in this readable, nicely illustrated guide.. This book is a step in the right direction towards empowering teachers to give children autonomy as writers. It has the virtue of setting out a clear rubric for teaching, based upon largely sound principles."

- Francis Gilbert, Teaching English (NATE)
