A Book to Help Overcome Communication Challenges
Many children are nervous when public speaking and this fear can be amplified for those with a voice, speech, or language disorder. For children that sound a bit different, even day-to-day interactions with others can be stressful, causing them to become frustrated and withdrawn.
This reluctance to engage, in turn, could impact the development of relationships and impede the acquisition of critical social skills. Moreover, suppose this pattern of withdrawal and fear continues as the child develops. In that case, it can lower self-esteem and lead the child to avoid pursuing opportunities and subsequently falling behind peers.
The Courageous Lion in Milo is a children's speech therapy book written to help kids overcome their communication obstacles, grow confidence in their communication abilities and strengthen self-esteem.
Milo and His Situation Are Familiar to Many Kids
The Courageous Lion in Milo was written especially for kids who need a little extra help to learn how to communicate effectively with others. As a picture book for speech therapy, it can be used as a gentle introduction to the idea of speech therapy and a tool to practice sounds that may be difficult for some children.
More than that, Milo shows a child with communication challenges that other children are just like them, helping them to feel less alone and more understood. Through the positive example of Milo, children learn that it is possible to learn to speak more clearly. This realization can be the encouragement needed to move forward with their efforts.
Although children from every culture can have a communication disorder, statistically, according to the
U.S. National Institute on Deafness and other Communication Disorders, more black children (nearly one in 10) are likely to suffer from a voice, speech, language, or swallowing disorder. Despite this, children's speech therapy books with black main characters are rare, making the Courageous Lion in Milo a special gift.
Confidence is a Life-Changing Gift
Sometimes it isn't the big showy things that change a child's life, but small, consistent efforts make a difference. For example, regularly reading and practicing language with a child, with the aid of a book, is a small habit to commit to but can have far-reaching results in their life.
When children start to make and see progress with their communication skills, it can encourage them to find the confidence to reach out to others, speak in public and create an overall positive effect on their relationships.
