Books: I Am an Emotional Creature

We know Eve Ensler.  We know what she is famous for; however, our students often are not familiar with her.  I Am an Emotional Creature is a vivid picture in poetic monologues of what it is like to become a woman in today's world.

To create the book, Eve interviewed girls all over the world.  She then wrote interior monologues to convey the variety of their experiences and emotions.

This would be great "next read" for a student who is reading Patricia McCormick's Sold, Laurie Halse Andersen's Speak, or any of Ellen Hopkins books.
