I can write a book is a creative series from Bobbie Kalman that teaches students about important curriculum concepts by showing them how to write and design their own non-fiction books. To write their own book about butterflies, for example, children will need to understand and include the concepts of metamorphosis, migration, symmetry, and pollination. Kalman's series teaches those concepts along with essential book publishing skills such as researching, editing, design, and use of fonts. The books also teach about the parts of a non-fiction book - front and back covers, title page, contents and copyright pages, and glossary and index - and how to write using different text styles:
• informational text
• reports
• biographical writing
• instructional text
