Welcome!

Hello there, and welcome to my blog about Laurie Halse Anderson's award winning novel Speak. Please check out all of the pages located above, and be sure to leave any of your questions or comments here! I've created a summary and analysis page, which delves into the many symbols present throughout the novel. I also created a few essay questions and assignments to use if teaching, or a few questions to begin discussions. There also is a help section if you or someone you know is dealing with assault, as Anderson is a strong advocate of speaking out and getting the help that could save a life.

Enjoy
