Description
Kate Wilde has done it again! In a clear and concise manner, her new book The Autism Language Launcher lays out how speech can become a very real possibility for any currently non-verbal child or adult with autism. In her book, Kate offers not only buckets of hope (backed up with so many wonderful examples) to support families on this journey to spoken language, but also concrete techniques that encourage success and help build increased relationship with our children. I adore Kate, I adore this book and I can't wait to hand it out to all my families who wish for more verbal communication with their children. Mark my words, The Autism Language Launcher is a game changer!
