Rev Up Your Writing in Informational Texts

24 pp. | Child's | August, 2015 | Library ISBN 978-1634070638 $28.50
(4) 4-6 Rev Up Your Writing series. Illustrated by Mernie Gallagher-Cole. Each book defines the titular writing form; highlights key elements (such as salutation and signature in Letters or characters and setting in Fictional); and suggests tips for planning, finding inspiration, and writing form-appropriate pieces. The titles covering nonfiction unfortunately do not discuss citation strategies. Sample writing passages with associated questions reinforce the serviceable instruction; cartoonish illustrations break up the text. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers the following Rev Up Your Writing titles: Rev Up Your Writing in Informational Texts, Rev Up Your Writing in Nonfiction Narratives, Rev Up Your Writing in Blogs, Rev Up Your Writing in Fictional Stories, Rev Up Your Writing in Letters and E-mails, Rev Up Your Writing in Opinion Pieces, and Rev Up Your Writing in Procedural Texts.
