In her first essay, Anne writes on the topic “A Chatterbox.” She tries to justify why talking so much is natural and even necessary for her as a student.

Quick Scoop

  • Anne’s teacher, Mr. Keesing, gives her the essay as a punishment for talking too much in class.
  • She writes about three pages explaining that:
    • Talking is a typical student’s trait, not just a bad habit.
* She will **try** to keep it under control, but cannot stop completely.
* Her talkativeness is inherited from her mother, who is also very talkative, so it is “in her genes.”
  • Mr. Keesing finds her arguments funny and has a good laugh after reading the essay.

In short, her first essay is a humorous self‑defense of being a chatterbox, not a formal or serious topic.
