A collection of newsletter-style books from East End Literacy. Each issue contains stories written by learners and stories about learners, along with puzzles and recipes.
In celebration of World Literacy Day, September 8, 1998, the Calgary John Howard Society Literacy Program is pleased to present this collection of student writings and activities. Sincere congratulations are extended to the writers whose stories and poems are included in this booklet. Reflecting the dedication and hard work of both students and tutors, these poems and stories will be greatly enjoyed.
This book is a tribute to the diligent work of our learners and tutors over the 10 past years. Two of the aims of this book are to encourage a love of reading and to be a tutoring resource. Please keep in mind that this book is a work in progress, and that it was written by the learners and a minimum editing of spelling, punctuation and grammar was done.
