That is the idea behind Advanced Language & Literature—a complete solution for 10th grade honors and Pre-AP English classes. Driven by the expertise of Renee Shea, John Golden, and Lance Balla, this introduction to literature and nonfiction, reading and writing, analysis and argument, is both challenging and nurturing; a book full of big ideas, thought-provoking texts, and all of the support young minds need to be prepared for AP success. — Publisher
