Ortmeier-Hooper foregrounds the power of affect in the teaching of writing, and her pedagogy reflects the high value she places on student self-efficacy. Throughout this relatively slim book (how did she pack so much wisdom and practice into just 197 pages?), we come to know the ELL writers who participated in Ortmeier-Hooper’s research; she includes biographical sketches of each participant, thus illustrating the rich diversity that ELL students bring to their writing. This technique invests her scholarship with power and humanity.
