Overview

For courses in Developmental English with students of varying skill levels, or those in need of additional writing practice prior to college-level writing.   A highly visual, theme-based approach to writing that meets you where you are, and guides you to where you need to be.   Revel™ The Writer’s World series integrates essential elements that are simply not found in other writing books – a stimulating visual program, thoughtful coverage for nonnative speakers, and effective strategies that address the skill levels of all readers.
