LEAP: Reading and Writing aims to improve reading and writing skills with Academic Word List (AWL), vocabulary, grammar, academic survival skills, and final assignments that let learners apply what they learned in individual and personalized ways. Focus on critical thinking helps learners reflect on what they read to develop strategies that can be applied to writing. The Global Scale of English (GSE) structures LEAP's learning goals to give learners a clear idea of the language objectives they should aim to meet. Each chapter in the book focuses on engaging themes drawn from science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), as well as education and business fields. Each chapter includes three readings related to the chapter theme, often with divergent perspectives. Most of these readings are authentic and give learners a chance to apply their critical thinking skills. The writing component involves different types of paragraphs and other forms, including essays. Beyond the book, My eLab exercises and documents give learners the opportunity to reinforce and build on what they learn.

Do you desire to become wise, wealthy, worthy, worldly and immortal? Ever desired to write your STORY INTO A book? Do you want to make a mark in life or leave behind an undying message for your children or become self-reliant as a society? This book has been written for this purpose. You realize that this is not an ordinary book-but a book of books-written with the reader and the society as a whole in mind. It has specially been written for the individuals and societies that don't regard READING AND WRITING of books so highly-the individual and society whose decline is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Besides, isn't our ability to read and write books the only quality that sets us-the humans-apart from the beasts? Moreover, nothing else that man builds lasts. Indeed, the time is dawning when colleges will teach reading and writing of books as a major separate discipline. Take a chance. "The decline of a literature is the decline of a society."-von Goethe

Laura Purdie Salas is the author of more than 125 books for children, including Meet My Family , If You Were the Moon, the Can Be series, and BookSpeak Recognition for her books includes starred reviews, the Minnesota Book Award, NCTE Notable Books, Bank Street Best Books, Riverby Award for Nature Books, Scholastic Book Club editions, foreign editions, and more. Salas has taught writers through classes, conferences, and online for many years. "Making a Living is a practical guide focused on the Children's Literature business, but it is useful for any self-employed human being trying to make a living through creative work of any kind. Reading it affirmed many things I've learned over the years and gave me new ideas to try. It is a good resource to own and refer to over and over as the political climate, business climate, and one's personal life changes." --Georgia A. Greeley, artist, writer, and teacher "I think most writers would love to sit down with a mentor over a cup of tea. Laura Purdie Salas's personal tone in Making a Living as a Children's Writer makes reading it feel like a conversation with her. It is FULL of information for every children's writer, and it's thorough. Not only does Laura share the details of how she makes a living writing for children, she guides the reader to do the same through personal experiences, tips, and next steps to take. Even as an experienced writer, I found nuggets (and heaps) of wisdom in every section. I appreciate how there is enough information in this book that Laura could have prepared a writing conference on the content...instead she makes this comprehensive book affordable and accessible for all of us." --Annette Whipple, children's writer "If you want to make a living writing for children, or if you already do but want to up your game, don't pass on this book. It's the most thorough and informative book you'll find on this subject." --Avery Elizabeth Hurt, children's author "Reading this book is like having a nice long chat with an experienced author--and learning from her years of experience " --Buffy Silverman, author of nonfiction books and poetry for kids "Salas is an organizational, motivational whiz. Packed with specific, down-to-earth advice that will help both newbie and experienced writers set and reach career goals." --Michelle Schaub, author of Fresh-Picked Poe
