Since it was first published in 1999 by Farrar Straus Giroux Books for Young Readers, Laurie Halse Anderson’s Speak has reached millions of readers. Now Macmillan is hoping to attract millions more with the digital debut of Speak and the release of a new paperback edition from Square Fish. Twelve years after its debut, with more than 2.5 million copies sold, a 2005 movie adaptation starring Kristen Stewart, and after being translated into 20 languages, the novel still speaks just as loudly now as it did then.
“The release of the ebook is an exciting milestone for Speak,” says Anderson. “A new generation of readers is discovering the story for the first time. A new generation of parents is realizing the power of the book to start conversations and strengthen their families. I am thrilled and honored that Speak will continue to help teens find their voices, and help adults understand the need to listen, when kids speak up.”
