Update! Seller acknowledged the discrepancy in the mailing procedure and made it alright. Feel free to order books from them based on their new knowledge of how to ship hardback books with protective packaging. Thanks to the seller for being forthright in making amends. This is an honest and above board seller.

  • Not so impressed

    I purchased this text for a summer class and while there are some sections which are helpful (learning about Writer's Workshop for example), most of the text felt drawn out. I was also reading Notebook Know How by Aimee Buckner at the time. Comparing the texts, I would say Buckner's text lays out the teaching tools for writing more clearly than Tompkins. I do plan to hold on to this text because it does break down the genres of writing well.

  • I needed this book for my college course. Excellent!

    I needed "Teaching writing" for a college course and it was an excellent. I got a lot of use from it and it's a good book to keep for future referance.

  • Great book!

    Have just begun reading this book but know I will like it! There are a number of great examples and pictures of writing samples within it. Great ideas too!
