Description
Rebecca Stern's fifth grade students were bored to death with essay writing, and the one thing Rebecca needed to inspire them--great examples appropriate for kids-- was nowhere to be found. Inspired by a challenge, Rebecca joined forces with her friend, social entrepreneur Brad Wolfe, and the two came up with a terrific proposal--to gather a collection of unconventional essays by some of the best writers around. They have compiled and edited a collection of imaginative, rule-breaking and untraditional essays that is sure to change the way you think about the essay.
