High-interest authentic texts at an intermediate to advanced level feature immigrant Canadian authors who made a significant impact on the literary scene. The fact that the writers were once immigrants to Canada should have a particular appeal for ESL learners. Selections include short stories, poems, essays, and scenes from a play-all available on the accompanying cassette. Features: _tliterary quality-the selections provide reading pleasure and interest _tstudent appeal-the writers are women and men from various cultural and ethnic backgrounds _tlanguage learning activities-foster reading comprehension, discussion, and writing skills _thelpful pedagogy-key words and expressions are defined in context."
