Do you work with children with speed sound difficulties?
Does your child struggle with their speech sounds?
‘Say it like a Snake’ by Lucy Morse is a children’s book about a girl named Sue who couldn’t say her ‘s’ sound. The author is a qualified speech and language therapist.
I came across this book a couple of years ago and have been recommending it ever since. It’s a great book for any child working on their speech sounds. Even if the child doesn’t need any help with their ‘s’, it is a lovely story to share with them all about a child who finds some sounds difficult, like them.
I’ve just had a Google and it doesn’t look like Lucy has published any more books like this, focusing on different sounds, which is a shame.
The illustrations in this book are beautiful and the story is good too – who doesn’t love a trip to the zoo?!
