Hi

Has anyone read talkability? It is kinda pricey and I would really want to hear if any parents have had any success with this.

My nearly 5 year old can talk he only speaks in 1 sentence. I really need to build on this, will this book help?

Thanks all

i liked it a lot. it is down to earth, sound book with good and clear rules to follow.
however how useful will it be depends on what is the childs problem. with our son, his disinterest in any toys and visible activities makes it hard to implement.
still some rules and his sensory profile were very useful.

Since you say it is expensive, have you checked any accessible libraries to see if they have it?

Other than that, I don't know anything about it. Sorry.
