Abstract	Intended for parents, this book offers straightforward directions on how to guide children in constructing a composition. It also helps parents review and clarify compositions that their children have already written. The book gives a developmental perspective to children's performance and includes sample compositions from actual classroom writing of children in grades 3-5. Chapters in the book are: (1) What Do Kids Write about in the Early Grades?; (2) Follow a Writing Process; (3) Prewriting: "How Do I Get Started?"; (4) Drafting: "How Do I Write the First Version?"; (5) Revising: "How Can I Improve What I've Written?"; (6) Proofreading: "How Can I Check for Mistakes?"; (7) Writing Descriptions; (8) Writing Letters; (9) Writing about Literature; and (10) Writing Stories. The book contains worksheets to give parent and child a thorough guide to improved writing, starting with early activity in the elementary grades. (CR)
