I am very happy with this book, it gives a starting point for understanding Selective Mutism, which is a very complex condition. Gives a few tips regarding how family, friends and teachers can help; the book is short and simple, and can be understood by children. Why not five stars? because if you want to learn what Selective Mutism is really like, you have to look into other sources too. Don't stay with just with this book, it is just a great starting point.
My 4 year old grandson has this problem. I had never heard of it. This book is excellent in helping to understand it and be able to explain it to others. It is an easy,quick read but full of helpful information on what to do or not do to make the child even more uncomfortable.
Really simple, to the point, packed full of good tips for parents and teachers. I think it will be good resource for my child's teachers because it will provide just the right level of detail for a busy classroom teacher. If you need a quick overview and a resource to share with others that won't require a degree in psychology, this is the book.
If you have a young child with this problem;please read the book. It actually gives a great insight as to what makes these kids tick.Takes a while, but progress can be made with time and patience. David C Milne.
This is an easy read to find out the basics about SM. I provided a copy of it to my child's teacher as well as purchasing a digital version. I shorted it a star simply because the book is overpriced for the length of it, but it is a great read little book.
My grand daughter was recently diagnosed with selective mutism I didn't know about it. This book was an excellent introduction and helped me understand her struggles. I highly recommend it
The book is too short and no much scientific for the price, but it worked for me and my daughter. Written in a easy and understandable language, for children and adults.
Really a great resource for families and educators. Have given it to others to share with students who may not understand this condition.y
