Debbie Feit: The Parent's Guide to Speech and Language Problems

“A must own for any parents with concerns about their child’s development of language or speech. I have never seen a book for parents that takes the parental point of view so completely and yet, at the same time, conveys so much important information! ”

“Debbie Feit knows not only why our kids do what they do (or don’t do, as the case may be), but how to get the therapist and the school and the insurance company to help you do something about it.”
~ Terri Mauro, About Parenting Special Needs, Specialchildren.about.com
