9781324045380: Let's Talk with Readings

Synopsis

Students like little books and they need ones they can afford. They need to read, write, and do research--and to listen with open minds and engage respectfully with new ideas and multiple perspectives. Let's Talk with Readings covers all that, and its anthology of 31 readings, combined with the selections on the LetsTalkLibrary, will spark conversations about issues students will want to read about, think about, talk about, and write about.
