I love this idea. As an undergraduate I used many children's books during clinic for literacy and for enhancing a core vocabulary in expressive language. I'm currently taking a graduate fluency course at NYU and we have been discussing how parents are an essential component in intervention. The use of this book and books like it could be a great therapy tool for at home carry over with the child and parent/caregiver. Have you found that parents are more apt to using the book since it is something tangible/concrete? I'm also curious if you have thought about making more books for older children as well? Thanks!
