Quickwrite 12/8

I really liked the piece Mother Tongue. It kept me interested throughout the whole writing. I like how she used her moms English as an example. She made a really good point on how one person's speech can affect how you're treated. For example, whenever her mom needed something and she talked to someone about it, she never got it. But then she'd say, "Talk to my daughter" and she'd get what she wanted because her daughter could speak fluent English. I really liked the end of the piece when the daughter wrote a book and she had her mom read it. Her mom then said, "So easy to read." It's a happy ending to the piece of writing because her mom could easily read what she wrote.
