Invisible Girls is an examination of twenty-four at-risk adolescent
girls' writing practices in a Third Space setting located within a
school but outside of the confines of a regular classroom. Through
a description of the girls' writing over a three-and-a-half-year
period in this setting, Mellinee Lesley details phenomena that both
support and suppress at-risk adolescent girls in their quest to
achieve academic success through their writing practices. This book
offers educators insights into teaching writing to adolescent girls
who are falling through the cracks of the public education system
in the United States. Much more attention needs to be given to the
literacy practices and pedagogical needs of this considerable
population of learners. As such, this book is poised to fill a void
in the field of literacy for educators who want to prevent the
intellectual abandonment of girls drifting invisibly along the
corridors of schools.
