Speaking of Apraxia, A Parent's Guide to Childhood Apraxia of Speech

Do you have a child with apraxia of speech? As a speech language pathologist for twenty years, I have worked with many children diagnosed with apraxia of speech. Working in the field of AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication), I have worked with the most severe cases of apraxia where speech is not available for functional communication on a consistent basis.

I am thrilled to have Leslie Lindsay on my podcast to talk about the second edition of her book, Speaking of Apraxia, A Parent's Guide to Childhood Apraxia of Speech.

Now available in an updated, second edition, Speaking of Apraxia (Woodbine House, November 2020), is an award-winning resource on Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS). Eight years ago, when Leslie Lindsay, former Child & Adolescent Psychiatric R.N., and mother to a daughter with CAS—now resolved—couldn’t find any parent-friendly books to help her child and family with CAS, she wrote one. This updated, well-researched, and comprehensive work provides readers the benefit of her experience and perspective.
