A focus on research with a distinctive design

With its distinctive, visually rich design, Revel™  The Little DK Handbook stands apart from comparable composition texts. Authors Wysocki and Lynch help readers learn to narrow down topics, find and cite sources properly, craft clear arguments, hone their individual voices, and more. An emphasis on research – including online resources – provides a solid foundation in information literacy, while grammar and documentation (e.g., MLA, APA, etc.) are handled in an approachable, accessible way. Unique two¿-page spreads marry design and content to make the text enjoyable and easy to understand, while new additions and revisions in the 3rd Edition expand on the fundamentals of research and writing.
