Speak is a coming-of-age novel that explores the emotional journey of a teenage girl. It focuses on her struggles and growth after a traumatic event. The story is raw and powerful, offering insights into adolescence and the importance of speaking up.
Definitely fiction. 'Speak' takes you into a fictional world created by Laurie Halse Anderson, filled with fictional characters and events that captivate the reader's imagination.
I think it involves breaking down the elements of good speaking in novels and providing practical exercises. Maybe starting with character voices and dialogue structure.
