The Big Book of Exclamations

Yesterday, the girl's speech therapists introduced me to a fabulous book that my children really interacted well with.  My girls really struggle with speech and will only say a few words here and there.  Getting them to expand their vocabulary and speak meaningfully is a big goal for our family.  The Big Book of Exclamations not only kept their attention but it "promotes speech sound development, and imitation of gestures, sounds, and words" (Peterson).  The book was writtne by Teri K. Peterson who is a board-certified speech pathologist.  I loved the experience I had withthe girls so much with this book that I ordered 2.  One for home and one for the girl's classroom.  I am so excited to share this resourse. A big thanks to the author and creator of this wonderful book.
