Derrick Tizzard loves writing. When his two children were small, he couldn`t read them a story. He could only tell them one that he made up in his head. Since he has gone back to school and learned to read and write, his dream finally came true. He hopes you enjoy his stories.

This useful guide to writing is divided into two sections : Writing and Free Writing. The first part of the guide contains examples, notions, and activities on penmanship, sentences, lists, paragraphs, invitations, etc. The second part of the book is about free-writing. To encourage the free-writing process, several aids are used to stimulate the learner.

AThis collection of stories by learners was written to commemorate the 10th Anniversary of the Rabbittown Learners Program. These stories have been written by past and present learners and not only tell of their interests, but their life experiences and their struggles with trying to cope with little or no education.
