Hello. My name is Kellan. I’m 8 years old. I live in Palm City, Florida. I love soccer and Roblox. Sometimes I stutter in the middle of when I’m talking. My strategy is


to restart my sentences.


Remember it’s okay if you stutter. If you don’t know anyone else who stutters, I do, so you have someone with you.


Kellan, 8, Palm City, FL MY STUTTER


I have clouds in my mouth, Chains that hold me back from talking Like a normal person.


The slug in my mouth is unbearable, The despair that constantly Lingers above my head.


I see other people express their feelings Without having to stop. It’s just not fair.


I would give anything to talk normally And fight through my stutter.


My mouth is like a sad dolphin That can’t explain how it’s feeling. But I can fight through my stutter, Break through the chains,


Pop the clouds and talk through the glitch.


You can do the impossible, Overcome your stutter like I did. Travis, 8, Springfield, VA
