Book Description
Recognizing that many students in the sentence-to-paragraph-level course have experienced repeated failure in the past, Stepping Stones takes a fresh approach to the core challenges of the course. The book clearly articulates — textually and visually — the sentence patterns that college writers need to master. Then, it patiently guides students through every step of building these sentences and recognizing common problems in them. Additionally, the book offers unusually thorough, carefully staged guidance in developing and organizing ideas — two of the most difficult tasks for developmental students. Drawing on years of classroom experience, award-winning educator Chris Juzwiak recognizes that all students have the potential to become better writers and just need the right tools to succeed.

Pages : 318
Book Description
Addiction is a stealth predator. Unrecognized, it will grow and flourish. Unchecked, it destroys. Marilea Rabasa grew up in post-WWII Massachusetts in a family that lived comfortably and offered her every advantage. But they were also haunted by closely guarded family secrets. Alcoholism reached back through several generations, and it was not openly discussed. Shame and stigma perpetuated the silence. And Marilea became part of this ongoing tragedy. From an unhappy childhood to a life overseas in the diplomatic service to now, living on an island in Puget Sound, Stepping Stones chronicles Marilea’s experiences, weaving a compelling tale of travel, motherhood, addiction, and heartbreaking loss. The constant thread throughout this story is the many faces and forms of addiction, phantoms that stalk her like an obsessed lover. What, if anything, will free her of the masks she has worn all her life? An inspiring, poignant recovery story, Stepping Stones tells how Marilea took on the demons that plagued her all her life—and defeated them.
