Books, Manuscripts
Verbal dyspraxia is a widespread, specific, severe speech disorder found in children, which prevents the brain from getting the correct messages to the muscles in and around the mouth, which in turn affects the ability to make intelligible speech. The outcome can be traumatic for all and involves trying to get effective support from the NHS, establishing what therapy the child needs and implementing coping strategies to ensure that the child can have as normal a childhood as possible. This book presents a guide for families coping with verbal dyspraxia.
