The Late Talker
What to do if Your Child Isn’t Talking Yet
By Marilyn Agin MD, Lisa Geng, and Malcolm J. Nicholl

The first book to show parents how to tell whether a child has a speech delay or a more serious speech disorder.

The warning signs of a serious speech disorder
Finding the right therapist for their child
Negotiating with school boards, teachers, and service providers
Exercises to do at home with a child.
