In the reading of chapter 2, the book talks about how to connect and engage your audience when telling a story. I can relate this to my own personal narrative. I engaged my audience by telling a story about being a teenager. I know my audience is classmates, so I wanted to use a relatable story that others may be going through. The chapter also talks about ethos, pathos, and logos which is extremely important and relevant when communicating with others. I think when telling a personal narrative, paths is most important because you can make someone else really feel the way you felt.
