Explanation

A personal story can help readers connect emotionally with the effects of the Great Depression on an ordinary family. A young Oklahoman family who experienced the Dust Bowl gives the audience a concrete example of what working-class life was like, making it more engaging than a list of programs, statistics, or a long speech.
