I would suggest Katie Wood Ray, "Wondrous Words" one of the best writing workshop books and resources out there (in my humble opinion),but it may be too long. I use it for a writing course for elementary/middle school. Ralph Fletcher/JoAnn Portalupi have one called "Writing Workshop: the Essential Guide", it's shorter and a good resource. Kelly AB

I am looking for suggestions for a writing textbook (or teacher professional book) to use in my literacy course (includes undergrad and grad students). Nothing too overwhelming--(Calkins' The Art of Teaching Writing would be too much...). Looking for something short, to the point yet gives a good overview of writing in the elementary classroom. Any ideas?
