Summary Less Is More is full of powerful ideas for teaching with short, provocative text. This book broadens and extends our available teaching tools and materials, and can help engage all students. It is a valuable resource for language arts teachers.?Cris Tovani Language arts teachers want all of their students to love literature and embrace the novels they assign.
