Riassunto:

This book attempts to harness the power of stories to help students grow and develop as writers. It argues that stories and narratives can be utilized in the composition classroom, specifically first-year composition (FYC) to break down barriers. Stories and narratives can help students overcome academic, personal, and creative barriers.
