This is an easy to read, interesting book about pop culture and advertising. It teaches key concepts such as target audience, consumer profiles, how advertising works, and how to sell a product. This is a great book for middle or high school students working on projects or looking into how to write a persuasive essay. As a former English teacher, this would have been a great book to teach when starting a writing unit.
