Margaret Drabble
, respected author and BSA patron writes in the foreword:

This beautifully produced and thought-provoking little book should be required reading for all those with speech difficulties, and all those who work with speech.

There are stories here of pain, embarrassment, bravery, and triumph. There are stories of kindness and insensitivity in the classroom, and in the world of work... There is a sense of sharing here which offers real encouragement.

This is a very moving book, full of remarkable moments and insights.

Price: £3 (or 2 for £5), including UK postage and packing. All proceeds go directly to BSA.

Review by Daniel Hunter, Chair, SIG Disorders of Fluency
