Rating:  - awesome
This book has so many good ideas and ways of teaching writing to students. I have found it very useful to use with my 3rd graders and I can see it being used in most all grades. The lists are fantastic and offer the children the vocabulary to make their writing more enjoyable to read.
Rating: - Good Resource Book to Supplement other Texts
I taught English for nearly eight years before I found this book. Now, I use it regularly for a community ESL class I teach in my spare time.

Rating: - An effective tool for teaching writing, BUT...
The Writing Teacher's Book of Lists is a useful resource for teachers of writing, but it is more technical and perhaps better suited to beginning teachers who might appreciate the 90 useful lists for developing instructional materials, activities, teaching suggestions etc. I would recommend using this book together with another effective book on teaching writing titled, "Writing Process Activities Kit: 75 Ready-to-use Lessons & Worksheets for Grades 7-12".
Rating: - great teaching tool
I found the information in this book to be very helpful in my classroom. There are great lessons on all different types of writing. They are very easy to follow and adaptable for different grade levels. Very useable.
