520    "Ever had an emotion or experience you wanted to express, 
       but didn't know how? This guide encourages teens to find 
       their voices, step up and speak their truths, and 
       articulate what matters to them most--both personally and 
       politically--whether it be boldly to an outside audience 
       or just privately for themselves. Young adults are reading
       and writing and performing poetry more than ever before, 
       and yet it's the most difficult form for schools to teach.
       Written in short, easy-to-digest chapters, My Shouting, 
       Shattered, Whispering Voice includes prompts and 
       inspiration, writing suggestions and instruction, brief 
       interviews with some current popular poets such as Kim 
       Addonizio, Safia Elhillo, and others, and poem excerpts 
       scattered throughout the book. My Shouting, Shattered 
       Whispering Voice offers ways to express rage, frustration,
       joy, and sorrow, and to substitute apathy with creativity,
       usurp fear with daring, counteract anxiety with the joy of
       writing one word down and then another to express vital, 
       but previously unarticulated, thoughts. Most importantly, 
       here you can discover the value of your own voice and come
       to believe that what you have to say matters"--|cProvided
