Speak

Medium Project #2

This book is called Speak, by: Laurie Halse Anderson. It's about this girl named Rachel and,one of her terrifying memories is from the Twilight Zone movie that she watched in high school. One thing that she remembers well is a woman without a mouth, where her lips and teeth should have been, it was smooth, stretched out skin. Her brother who was a disturbed child that wished for things, and by doing this, made them happen. He was the one that took away her mouth because he doesn't want to hear her opinions, or what she has to say. I think that the idea of someone taking away your mouth, your voice, & your ability to SPEAK, is just chilling and sort of scary.
