 Reading and writing naturally develop together and use similar cognitive processes. Combined, they create an understanding of literacy as a constructive process. Reading A-Z, a Writing A–Z sister website, offers hundreds of leveled books which exemplify the various writing genres covered on Writing A–Z. As a bonus for being a Writing A–Z member, we're providing a leveled reader that is a model of each type of writing.
