Getting Ready For Speech was a finalist in the Independent Publisher book awards of 2002. It features a wide variety of sample speeches; it includes storytelling, show and tell, and movie and book reviews; it is perfect practice for high school speech contests; it carefully controls grammar and vocabulary and recycles them again and again. "Getting Ready for Speech" is much more than the lowest level speech book on the market. Using a new approach, each unit develops both language skills and speech skills. Each unit introduces grammar, vocabulary, and listening skills along with speech delivery and organizational skills. Every unit features a different type of speech.
