[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If anybody cares about their kid learning to write in a sophisticated fashion, I'd recommend that the kid read the New Yorker regularly. There's a wide variety of pieces, including humor writing, reviews, poems, etc. My dad had a subscription lall through my childhood. It really helped me to appreciate different writing objectives. I'd say it was more helpful than most of my English classes. [/quote] This is exactly right. There's no magic to it. Kids who struggle with writing will benefit from reading more, particularly high quality writing found in publications like the New Yorker. [/quote]
