My 10 year old son that has a severe case of apraxia has overcome so much over the years (5 days a week of speech for 7 years). His speech is excellent now but his reading skills are behind (normal for kids with apraxia). Reading is very hard for him and despite working at it over and over and over again, he still has a hard time with sounds and putting everything together. He is 10 and is discouraged because he feels like most books on his level are for little kids and so he struggles with feeling like he is so far behind. I got him this book and he LOVES reading it. He told me he felt like it wasn’t a baby book and he felt good about reading it. FINALLY…I found one that made him feel good about himself! I am so thankful for this book and for what it is doing for my son! Thanks!
