Nonfiction: Writing for Fact and Argument: Effective Speeches

Product Description

Words surround us. They are printed on cereal boxes, across road signs, and in newspapers, books, and magazines. They are spoken, too - in the classroom, on television, at home. Sometimes words entertain us. Sometimes they teach us. Sometimes they persuade us. And sometimes they do all three. Some of the words that surround us weave a world of fiction - in which the people and events are not real but are the product of another's imagination. Other words, though, form the fabric of real life.
