About this listen
This book examines the causes of delayed speech and the issues of toddlers who are late talkers. Parents will learn different ways to help their children through this difficult time, while also providing support, acceptance, and leading a normal life without making the child feel as if they must be fixed. No matter the cause of a child's inability to talk, several foolproof methods are offered to help them communicate. Parents can learn the following from the book:
- Ways to encourage children, specifically those between one to three years of age, to speak and pronounce words.
- The best tools to help their children learn to speak through interactive toys and games.
- How praise plays an important role in promoting speech and how criticism can exacerbate speech delay.
- Methods to find out if their child is suffering from a mental illness.
- Ways to create routines for their children and work on building a relationship by understanding how their children communicate.
The book is designed to help parents cut through confusion and stress to figure out if their children need help. Those interested in learning how to develop young children's language will find this book indispensable.

Early and social interaction skills are essential for every child to get the best start in life. Skills like language, eye contact, and self-regulation are just some of the things your child needs in order to excel - personally and academically! Since the pandemic, both parents and teachers are becoming more concerned about children’s abilities to interact. On top of that, there are delays in referrals to specialists. As early interaction is so important, you are probably thinking that you don’t have the qualifications to make a difference. This is not true!

According to Mencap, there are approximately 351,000 children in the UK with a learning disability. In the US, 17 percent of children have delays in physical, learning, language, or behavior development. It doesn’t stop there. Worldwide, there are around 18.5 million people with speech, voice, or language disorders! If you yourself don’t have or never have had a speech and language delay or disorder, it’s nearly impossible to understand what your little one is going through.

I appreciate how the author uses words of affirmation within this book to encourage parents and those working with children in this population. The author states that it is crucial for those of us working with these children to consistently affirm them and letting them know that their success will not be hindered by their current challenges.
The author goes through the stages of Childhood Development to help parents gauge where their child is developmentally, and when to be concerned and seek additional help.
I appreciated the personal story the author relayed to when she had these challenges with her own child. There were those who were quick to advise that the speech delay was due the author not spending enough quality time with her child. Others will give you their own opinions, but it’s important to stay focused on improvement rather than blaming. Truly, these superficial explanations don’t have anything to do with the issue at hand.
I was also fascinated with the section explaining children who learn 2 or more languages at once. It’s good to know that this won’t have adverse affects on a child’s speech progression.
Overall this book is truly amazing. I will personally recommend this book to those I know who are currently dealing with these issues. They need to know that they are not alone,’and many children and families are in the same boat. The author also transparently shares that, she, too talked late but that did it hamper her success. The author’s personal connection to this subject definitely lends even more credence to the information in this book.
2 thumbs up!

But for some kids, it's only a phase that won't last forever. The author clearly shows how children learn language at different ages and stages of development. The fact that most people who start talking late eventually catch up to their friends is also quite encouraging.
Colvin provides eleven methods to help parents help their children without making them feel broken or disrupting family life too drastically.
As a former school nurse and first-grade teacher, I worked closely with our school's speech and language therapist. Unfortunately, children often only participate in speech therapy for 30 to 60 minutes each week. To make the most of that expert intervention, parents need to know what to do to help their child outside the session. For parents who want to learn about the phenomenon of late talking in a way that is comforting, empowering and educational, this book is a great place to start.
Comforting, empowering, and educational.
