States. 75% of children don't know how to write
well. Add that to the fact thatso many people out there are
trying to silence the voices ofthose who have been oppressed
and trying to prevent them fromtelling their story. Who's going
to tell your story? Story ifyour child doesn't know how to
write. Well, I have two books toaddress this issue, the rewrite
(10:05):
method and the rewrite methodworkbook. Pretend to make sure
that parents know what to do,that educators know what to do,
to get their children to writebetter and just not write
better, but love to write. Makesure that your next generation
could tell their story, and theywon't be silenced. Go to falling
