“Farm Girl” by Jessica Hemauer has many different aspects that describe a young child’s life in the Farmland. The article itself gives a different perspective to children who may have thought that their lives were already rugged life by going to school. In the Article Jessica Hemauer primarily describes her childhood and what she had to go through in a day as a “Farm Girl”. The main idea in this article is to not be ashamed of where you come from because your past makes you who you are and helps you grow as a person into the adult you become in life. The Genre in this article is nonfiction with narrative writing for example Jessica Hemauer states “its 5:00 a.m. My eyes are heavy with …show more content…
The other Genre used in this article is Expository writing because she is informing the reader about the life of a “Farm Girl” which is the title of the article. I feel that she did a great job with this article because it was very informative and detailed. The author's audience is young adults, but she is focusing on high school kids and also those kids that are ashamed of where they come from, the kids who aren’t comfortable in their skin. I feel like she is trying to let younger teenage children know that you should be proud of yourself. The author also states the fact that being a farm girl has had an enormous impact on her life. The message is for those kids who lack motivation for example “My boss continues to ask me where he can find some more hardworking people. I simply tell him, “Try hiring some farm girls. I hear they turn out pretty good.”
