Book Reviews of Play To Talk: A Practical Guide to Help Your Late-Talking Child Join the Conversation

Book Review: I found This Very Helpful
Summary: 5 Stars

My son is alittle languaged delayed due to effusions in both his ears. He lost his hearing, thus some language development until he had tubes placed. Now I am trying to get him where he should be. My insurance doesn't pay for speech therapy, and I am not very impressed with the early childhood learning programs. This is when I found this book. It spells out a learning program that a parent can do, track your progress/your childs progress, and does a great job explaining how to get your child to interact with you. It also does a great job giving you very specific dos and don'ts. My son isn't autistic, but I believe one of the authors does have a autistic child, and this seems to be a wonderful book for the purpose of trying to further language/social skills with a special needs child.

I would highly recommend this book, and compared with the other books out there it is very reasonable. I could only find this book on Amazon.
