Thank you for sharing this article! If you were to get a small group of children together for a session to open up to each other about their stuttering in order to relate their experiences and offer support, would you find these books to be a good tool to initiate the conversations amongst each other by relating their own experiences and emotions to what is being covered in the books? Or is this approach more suited for one-on-one sessions between a child who feels hindered by his emotions to communicate freely and a speech therapist who wants to get him more comfortable speaking out loud during his treatment?
