I had section 11:

It’s to help kids like that that Brannan and her volunteers put together an informational packet on secondary trauma for parents to give to teachers, explaining their battle-worthy idiosyncrasies and sensory-processing sensitivities. They’re common enough problems that the Department of Health and Human Services got in touch with Brannan about distributing the packet more widely.

This is a proposal claim, by giving these secondary packets it is a way of saying this is here to help you.  They are giving a recommendation for help to parents who have children who suffer from PTSD. It allows the teachers to better understand what the child is going through and how to help them to the best of their ability.

Brannan gave the packet to Katie’s kindergarten teacher, but thinks the teacher just saw it as an excuse for bad behavior. Last fall, she switched Katie to a different school, where she hopes more understanding will lead to less anxiety. Though Brannan hopes Katie will come out of childhood healthy, she still says, “She’s not a normal kid. She does things, and says things. She’s a grown-up in a six-year-old’s body in a lot of ways.”

This is a causal claim, by Katie switching to a different school it is hopeful that it will reduce Katies anxiety leading her to be a healthy child in the future. However it cannot be deemed factual that this packet alone will reduce Katies anxiety, but along with programs for people who suffer from PTSD it may be possible to reduce her anxiety. 

She certainly looks like a normal kid when she comes down from her room dressed for tap class. In a black leotard, pink tights, and shiny black tap shoes, she looks sweet as pie.

This is an illustrative claim, by describing what Katie looks like you are able to visualize her in a sense and what her life is like. This give the reader a sense of connection to the story because they can visualize in their mind what Katie looks like. 

“One time, a bad guy in Iraq had a knife and my dad killed him,” she says, apropos of nothing.

This is an illustrative claim, she is describing an event that she recalls happening. It cannot be deemed credible just because she said it, but she has captured the reader’s attention by stating this claim.  

“Katie Vines.” Brannan is stern but impeccably patient. She doesn’t know why Katie adapted this story about confiscating a weapon from an insurgent into a story about bloodshed, but she isn’t too happy about it. That kind of small talk recently ruined a birthday party one of her classmates was having at Chick-fil-A. Brannan and Katie have a talk, again, about inappropriate conversation. Katie is sorry—God, is she sorry, you can see it in her face and guilty shoulders, but she seems to feel like she can’t help it. Sometimes, at bedtime, she asks her mom to pray with her that her teacher will like her. Once, she asked Brannan to take her to a hypnotist, so he could use his powers to turn her into a good girl.

This is an illustrative claim, by adding “you can see it in her face and guilty shoulders” they are trying to evoke sympathy for Katie.  They describe the events of her wanting help and how sorry she feels that she is the way she is.
