"Your definitive guide for helping your speech-impaired child--cowritten by two in-the-trenches experts. When a child has communication problems-- diagnosed or not-- parents are first looking for a place to go for help. The Parent's Guide to Speech and Language Problems is a one-stop resource, offering not just the most up-to-date medical information but also advice and encouragement from a mom who's been there. Author Debbie Feit has two children with speech problems and knows what it takes to survive and thrive day-to-day as a family. No other book on the market can match this one for its combination of clinical research and real-world, hands-on parenting solutions"--Publisher's description.
