"Speak With Me" and the World Cup!

"I thought you might enjoy knowing the connection between your "Speak With Me" books and the World Cup. Here is the story:

In our school we have two little girls whose father plays for the professional Stuttgart football club. The family is from Mexico also plays on the Mexican national team.

One of the players daughters has Sammy Learns to Speak checked out and it is overdue! I am hoping that the book comes back because I can't easily replace it and because the family is leaving our school at the end of this year. However, if the book somehow stays with the family, I think it will be in good hands and well used!

Now you have a reason to cheer for Mexico!

All the best,

Betty,
Librarian
Stuttgart International School

Fabulous Review: Speak With Me Series!

"...these books will be an excellent addition to every home library for sound skills, regardless of speech ability. This is a well-rounded book providing parental speech therapy training, all in wonderfully short stories presented with beautiful illustrations.

The additional inclusion of the Practice Worksheet makes them a must have for every speech therapist and any family with a desire to encourage proper speech patterns from an early age and in a fun and inviting way.

Enjoy the books in the Speak With Me series with your children, whether or not they have speech difficulty; they will enjoy the story and practice sounds happily as you read together."

Fan Letter! "Dobbin and the Stardust Trail"

Here is a fan letter we would like to share with you. Thank you to all our readers!

-------------------

Greetings!

Just to let you know - my daughter Lena, who turns 5 today, is a BIG fan of your book! We read it several times a week at bedtime. She has a dark palomino stuffed horse that she's named Dobbin, and a smaller gray horse that she's named Sparkle.

Sorry to hear that Dobbin has crossed the Rainbow Bridge. :-( He seemed like a real gentleman, besides having that gorgeous mane & tail.

Hope you write another book!

Thanks,
