Eelco,

Thanks for writing about the development of your book. I have used it with several children and their families over the past year. It has provided a good way to encourage children to talk about their stuttering, and a way for them to share with their families. I have had nothing but good feedback from the kids and their parents.

I had a client this year who did not like to talk about his stuttering, nor did he particularly want to read about it! So, I chose short passages from your book to use in practicing some of the boy's targeted speech tools, and was able to get him interested in the topics while we worked on his stuttering. It lead to some good discussions between the two of us.

Again, thank you for putting so much good information into print in a format that appeals to both children and their families.

Regards,

Lynne
