Affordable and easy to use, The Little Seagull Handbook is the #1 brief handbook because students say it has a positive impact on their writing. Intuitive organisation, colour-codingand jargon-free instruction for common kinds of writing make it a reference tool that student writers truly use. This edition includes NEW advice for conducting research as it's done online today, NEW student model essays and a NEW chapter on writing summary/response essays.

Students today are writing more than ever. Everyone's an Author bridges the gap between the writing students already do-online, at home, in their communities-and the writing they'll do in college and beyond. It builds student confidence by showing that they already know how to think rhetorically and offers advice for applying those skills as students, professionals, and citizens. Because students are also reading more than ever, the third edition includes new advice for reading critically, engaging respectfully with others, and distinguishing facts from misinformation. Everyone's an Author, MLA Update Edition features the latest documentation guidelines from the ninth edition of the MLA Handbook (2021). Also available in a version with readings.
