Honestly, I didn't finish it, but not because it wasn't good. It was a speedy fast read appropriate for teens to learn about public speaking. Good advice, easy to absorb. Worth reading. I may use it for classes in the future.

I enjoyed this book, especially the examples it gave from real TED Talks. The author also made it clear that the book was not a one-size-fits all speech outline which I think is very important for students so they realize there are multiple ways to accomplish specific goals within a speech.

The layout was well organized and very conversational which I think is beneficial for a young reader looking to enhance their public speaking skills. This style made it easier to apply TED Talk lessons to classroom applications. It actually had a lot of similar information that I received a few weeks earlier in my college Speaking in Business and Professions class in our discussion over TED Talks.

Easily accessible and so very helpful, this TED talk guide to public speaking for teens is everything I hoped for. Coming out in March, this is a great way for us adults to learn more about public speaking and how to teach it better #pernillerecommends
