« I like to write.  I like to type. «  Kara uses a DynaVox V to help her « talk ».  She  wrote the story during a speech session with me.  Kara and I have worked together for three years.  Kara was thinking about « her friends and her brother, Zack, at college ». Kara was thinking about « growing up. »  The social story is to help her « feel happy » about her future.
