Gr 2–5—Mr. Billy (William Charles Grisack) sings 11 of his original songs about good writing techniques for stories or essays. These rock and roll numbers give listeners advice about choosing the best words; using details; writing from experience; using original ideas and content; organizing the paper with a beginning, middle, and end; varying sentences; proofreading for spelling and grammar; checking for common writing mistakes; and having a polished-looking paper, whether handwritten or computer generated. Among the song titles are "Follow the Organization Flow," "Use Your Voice," "Sentence Fluency," "Just Say No to Common Writing Mistakes," and more. A useful resource for language arts teachers.—Beverly Wrigglesworth, San Antonio Public Library, TX
