The Inspired Protagonist recently came across this 1992 speech by then 12-year-old Severn Suzuki, who with three friends founded the Environmental Children's Organization and raised money to attend the Earth Summit in Rio De Janeiro. Her fierce speech received a standing ovation and her group also addressed delegates at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED).
These days she is an environmental activist, speaker, television host, and author. Her speech is as resonant today as it was 16 years ago.

Perhaps her dad did but I have also known quite a few articulate and eloquent children in my time...especially if they feel passionately about something.

The same here...I have been reading and writing for as long as I can remember and I excelled in composition....especially if I was fired up about something which this young lady obviously is.
