{"product_id":"read-and-respond-a-text-anthology","title":"Read and Respond: A Text\/Anthology","description":"The Fourth Edition of this popular combination text\/anthology integrates reading and writing skills. The approach of \u003cem\u003eRead and Respond\u003c\/em\u003e is unique: students are assessed for comprehension through summary-writing rather than objective testing.

As a result, students develop proficiency in reading, writing, and critical thinking. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe new edition retains the best features of the previous editions.
