Title: speak
Product review: Speak is a book that touches many social issues in today's society. High school students today face the issues of rape and peer acceptance. Anderson uses these issues of our times in an emotional story of a young girl's self-growth. The theme is one of self-growth and self-worth. The story is written in first person, which allows the reader to experience Melinda's emotion's through her words and actions. Anderson's use of the tree is symbolic in this story. Melinda connects the idea of cutting off the unhealthy parts of a deseased tree to her own life. By the end of the year she has gained the confidence to speak about the rape.
