"This text is not a mini-lesson book. It’s a list of 100+ skills to teach readers and their corresponding writing skills. It’s for those who may not know the reciprocal skills between specific reading lessons and their counterparts in writing. Connecting Comprehension & Composition will help teachers plan which writing lessons to teach when targeting particular skills with their readers."--Kristina Smekens
