The book is comparatively thin (45 pages) but appropriately priced for that amount. The stress is on more sophisticated writing including complex sentences, paragraph topics, main idea exploration, run on sentences, etc. The book has a good mix of 'fill in the blank", rewrite the sentence, and write your own story type of exercises. Each exercise has a clear example and there are black and white supplementary drawings as well.
