This book is the FIRST in a series of writing books that take the skill from the basics. They are intended for kids learning to write, students who have basic writing skills, college and university students who intend to hone their communication skills thoroughly and for the general writer, especially the scholar and the creative writer who wants to learn good writing skiils. The books are divided depending on the level of the skill of the learner or writer and depending on how much the reader may already know about the skills of writing. The reader is at liberty to choose a book depending on the desires of the moment as well as the level of language and writing level. The books begin with the basics of letter combination, words and phrases, clauses and sentences to the paragraph and complete essays. They also examines various types of essays as well as various types of fuctional writing including reports, minutes etc. This particular book focuses on the very basics and targets young learners as well as creative writers aiming to improve their writing by avoiding basic grammar mistakes. It teaches the skills of grammar and general organization of writing. This way, the book helps the creative writer lessen the work of editing if the creative work will eventually be edited. Properly used, the writer will finally find out that no extra language editing will be required and therefore, the writer can concentrate on composition and integration of ideas. Once this is learnt, the writer can then examine the second and third books which focus on ideas and higher skills of creative writing.
