The authors would like to thank students Sarah Jackson and Jaclyn Delgadillo for their art-

work in the examples and answer keys. They would also like to thank the reading department

at Driscoll Middle School for trying out ideas and offering current examples.

In loving memory, I dedicate this book to my best friend and co-author,

Tina Willoughby

December 10, 1953–September 27, 1999

Tina is fondly remembered as someone who enjoyed life to the fullest measure and impacted

everyone she met. She taught those of us who knew her to live every minute, laugh every day

and love unconditionally. She treasured reading, and she passed that legacy on to children and

adults alike. Though she is missed terribly, her creative spirit lives on in the pages of this book

and in the hearts of students whose lives she so positively and profoundly influenced.
