My students love the Everything You Need to Know guide to writing. I already have 14 copies in my classroom to which they constantly refer for help. This helpful book debunks the myth that good writing just comes naturally to some. All of us need direct instruction from time to time. Best of all, the Everything You Need to Know series is beautifully formatted and full of colorful illustrations. It is published by the education experts who brought us Brain Quest. Here is how the book is described on Amazon: "Everything You Need to Ace English Language Arts...takes students from grammar to reading comprehension to writing with ease, including parts of speech, active and passive verbs, Greek and Latin roots and affixes; nuances in word meanings; textual analysis, authorship, structure, and other skills for reading fiction and nonfiction; and writing arguments, informative texts, and narratives."
