New Language Workbook Helps Build Confidence, Accept Differences

NEW BRAUNFELS, Texas - April 18, 2019 - s4story -- CANYON LAKE, Texas – A diverse group of young chickens will learn to understand each other better in the colorfully illustrated story, BeakSpeak, A Fable & Language Workbook written by author, Peggy Marceaux.

Mrs. Goldspeak, a Brahma Hen, is the teacher in a classroom of rowdy pullets (young female chickens) and cockerels (young male roosters). Each student has his or her own unique personality and nickname that reflect their speaking errors and common misconceptions about the breed.  Her goal is to encourage these chickens to think before speaking, be more precise when writing, in hopes of overcoming bias and stereotypes.

"This book is perfect for teachers and home-school parents" because the enclosed questions and suggested answers really help to get the conversation started. "My goal is to enhance critical thinking skills, build confidence and social awareness, and demonstrate how kindness defeats bullying," Peggy added.
