It is late spring, when the forest floor is greenest and the brook babbles loudest. In a magical clearing in the forest, Faylinn runs and speaks freely with the brook, trees, plants, and creatures who live there. At school, however, Faylinn finds it hard to speak and answer her teacher's questions. No matter how hard she tries to find her voice in class, the words get stuck. She knows the answers, so why can't she speak up and say what's inside as she does in the forest? Faylinn knows she needs to say what's on her mind.
Faylinn Speaks Up encourages children to use their voice and find the confidence to share their thoughts and feelings without fear. Through Faylinn, children learn that their voice can have power, especially when they have something to tell the world.
