Review
"...I am increasingly trying to expose my students to as many types of 'real-world' writing assignments and readings as possible. Not only do I search for assignments and readings representing writing situations in settings other than the classroom, but I enjoy bringing other 'texts'--visual, aural, etc.-to the classroom as well. For this reason, I was particularly attracted to the "Writers at Work' segments and the 'Writing Beyond the Classroom' readings and assignments in THE SUNDANCE WRITER."
"Overall, the book is easy to use and provides helpful information about the writing process. The other best feature of the book is the diverse readings."
"After performing this extensive review of THE SUNDANCE WRITER. I am more committed to using the text than ever. Sundance fills virtually every writing need of my English Composition I students."
"My general impression of SUNDANCE is that it is comprehensive, well-organized, and student-friendly. It is also clearly written with helpful examples."
