Then, more difficult questions are answered (typical CCLS type questions) using this whimsical text. There is a two page PDF file to correspond with this book that asks simple questions about style and craft. But, it is a perfect book to explain style and craft can be identified in any type of work.

All texts and excerpts will have to be supplied by the teacher.
