4.0 out of 5 stars Top Book - too focussed on kids, May 23, 2007
By Sam Toucan (Adelaide, Australia) - See all my reviews
I really like this book, and the others in this series that I have used.

It's drawback though is that it is VERY aligned to writing reports for children and could have included more examples of adult reporting.
