Product Overview

They Say / I Say shows that writing well means mastering some key rhetorical moves, the most important of which involves summarizing what others have said ( they say ) to set up ones own argument ( I say ).

In addition to explaining the basic moves, this book provides writing templates that show students explicitly how to make these moves in their own writing. Now available in two versions, with and without an anthology of 32 readings.
