The Little Voice

readings, “A Lesson before Dying,” by Earnest J.

One of the most common themes I observed when reading the three texts from 20th century American, contemporary Middle

Then I began write about a couple of things that I needed for class. The one that stood out the

A little girl who knew how to read before she knew how to feed herself lived at 14 Ch-her-bourg Drive, in a small town in a small state in a big country, sang in trees, swung sticks at bad guys, and believed that there were faeries living in her hair. She talked to stuffed animals, brushed their fur until it was as flyaway full as her own, about magic and being able to be the hero of her own story and blasting all the monsters away from the world.

for the reader. In the story “Eleven” by Sandra Cisneros, diction, syntax, and imagery are used to give the speaker a youthful voice.
