You have probably heard of Time<\/em> magazine because it is very famous around the world. Well, Time<\/em> also makes interesting and easy to read books called Time for Kids<\/em>. Even though this book is \u201cfor kids,\u201d it actually has a lot of really good writing tips.<\/p>\n

When I teach academic writing, I talk about brainstorming and prewriting, topic sentences, proofreading, etc. This book teaches all of the same topics using simple language and examples. There are sections on non-fiction writing (like writing essays for class), and also fiction (stories), poetry, newspaper reporting, and more. I think any<\/u> English student could learn something useful from the Section 1: Prewriting pages about \u201cchoosing a topic\u201d and the Section 2: Drafting pages about \u201cnonfiction writing.\u201d<\/p>\n

My two cents:<\/strong> You do NOT have to read every page in this book. Find the topics that look useful for YOU and read those first.<\/p>\n
