Book Reviews of The Late Talker: What to Do If Your Child Isn't Talking Yet

Book Review: A must read for parents of apraxic children
Summary: 5 Stars

An excellent, excellent book that really helped me understand my daughter's apraxia. My daughter clearly has oral/verbal/limb apraxia with associated SID and hypotonia. This is the first book that connected all the dots for me and helped me to realize what I've known in my heart all along -- that she has been mis-diagnosed over and over again. There is a ton of important information, including symptoms, treatment ideas, how to handle your IEPs at school and dealing with your insurance company. I really appreciated FINALLY reading a comprehensive manual that gave me such specifics, and understanding that schools should be administering non-verbal tests to really assess her skills. I only wish I knew about this book 3 years ago. I highly recommend this book.

Summary of The Late Talker: What to Do If Your Child Isn't Talking Yet

Every parent eagerly awaits the day his or her child will speak for the first time. For millions of mothers and fathers, however, anticipation turns to anxiety when those initial, all-important words are a long time coming. Many worried parents are reassured that their child is "just a late talker," but unfortunately, that is not always the case. Balanced with a mother's perspective and an acclaimed doctor's experience, this book gives parents advice on:
*Finding the right therapy and therapist
*Negotiating with school boards, teachers, and language specialists
*Speech exercises to do at home with a child.
The Late Talker is the first book of its kind, providing effective, practical answers to the questions every concerned parent asks.
