Hi Christa, great questions. First, we do hope to have some books for older children in the future. Second, we hope to have some data collected and presented by Spring '10. In terms of fluency, it is important to remember that the objective for this particular book is to reduce rate, so the functional outcome would be reduced speaking rate. A secondary outcome we would hope for might certainly be reduced disfluencies, but this would just be one component of a program to achieve that goal.
