First Words: Speech Therapy Success Stories

Inside this volume

Fifty first-person accounts describe the path from first concerns through evaluation, diagnosis, and speech therapy: the weekly sessions, the home practice, the slow accumulation of sounds and words and sentences, and the particular joy — and relief — of hearing a child's voice develop. Some accounts describe late talkers who caught up quickly; others trace longer, more complex journeys involving apraxia, stuttering, or language delay alongside other conditions.

Who it's for

For parents at the beginning of the speech therapy process, those already in the middle of it, and anyone who has wondered if their worry was warranted or their expectations reasonable.
