Reading Level: 4
Interest Level: 4-6
It?s hard to believe, but there was once a time when the written word didn?t exist. There were no books, sales receipts, or signs?there wasn?t even an alphabet! Reading & Writing takes the reader through the development of writing, from cuneiform in ancient Mesopotamia to e-mail today. Each title focuses on an important phase in the process and discusses how it changed the way people communicate. The easy-to-read text is enhanced with colorful illustrations and photographs.
