"Speak Freely: Essential Speech Skills for School-Age Children Who Stutter provides speech-language pathologists with a set of materials that will undoubtedly help them gain deeper insight into the components of successful school-age stuttering therapy. This resource is unique in that it not only includes handbooks for both therapist and student, but also audio CDs and a demonstration DVD. These useful features allow clinicians to hear and see Dr. Allen model and teach numerous stuttering modification and fluency-shaping strategies. The DVD highlights Dr. Allen working with children of various ages and offers a wide range detailed instruction. Speak Freely serves as an excellent guide that will help clinicians to become better stuttering therapists. It would be a great addition to the libraries of both beginning and advanced clinicians."
