"Can I tell you about Stuttering?" is a very insightful look into stuttering from a child's perspective. It is very informative and accurately reflects the feelings of a someone who stutters. It is very important that people who don't stutter understand how difficult life can be for those who do. Yet, even though stuttering is an often debilitating condition, this book tells other stutterers not to give up, that there is hope out there and with hard work and belief the battle against stuttering can be won. Besides, even with a stutter, we all have many, many qualities of which we should be very proud. It just really helps if other people understand and this book will definitely help with that.
