Elizabeht McCallum Marlow

Elizabeth McCallum Marlow, M.A., taught high school and college English for thirty-five years. In four books for English teachers, she has developed approaches that she found were effective in teaching teenagers to enjoy literature. This is the third in the series of high school textbooks on teaching literature that provides teachers with an experienced teacher's methodology. Elizabeth is co-author of The Book Tree, a reference guide that helps young people find a book they enjoy and that cultivates a life-long habit of reading.
