Good Stuff
This book is an excellent resource for teachers. It is full of great ideas and of lessons for writing. It is also very helpful to those teachers who are reluctant to have their students write daily. The feature that I like best is that the author includes great trade book lists to assist the teacher in modeling good writing.

Had to buy for a class
Well, I had to buy this for a class, so I can't say I was dying to read it. It is a fairly smooth n' easy read though, so if you find yourself in a similar position, you'll probably survive it.
