Fast and easy read. Provides a lot of detail on how Stella learned to talk using an assistance device - voice buttons. It seems almost too good to be true, but the dog research I‘ve read over the years indicates it‘s possible that Stella (and other dogs) have higher neurological functions that we thought. 3/5 stars - cites Speech Language research, but almost no canine research so a lower rating.
Also, welcome Aloy - our rescue puppy!
This is a biography about Martin Luther and his I have a Dream speech. He was an African American public speaker who spoke about a better future for his people. He talked about how one day they would get treated as real people instead of overlooked. He lead many group riot walks through the streets to make his presence known and know that he was not going to stop until his people were heard. He knew everyone was different and that made us unique.
Late because the Litsy app would not cooperate and let me add images last night! As an English professor, here are three of my favorite words to say out loud:
* onomatopoeia
* abecedarian
* soliloquy
Any other #TeachersOfLitsy want to chime in?

Such a lovely man & such a great book to audioknit to 🎃👻🔮
It takes a while to address what the child is dealing with (stuttering), which may create opportunity for many children dealing with different speech things to find a connection with the text. The art and poetry in this book are beautiful. #PictureBook #DisabilitiesRep
This was a June goal, so I don't have things that I can't find.

Being from MetroDetroit, Michigan, #MittenLitten, it‘s cool to know that MLK first said his speech in Detroit before saying it in Washington DC.
Today‘s #SavvySettings prompt is Prison. Some of Angela Davis‘s speeches criticizing the American prison system are included in this book.

In this autobiographical story, Scott portrays a young boy who has a “bad speech day” at school. His dad‘s advice helps him find ways to rethink his bad speech days. A great story that teaches acceptance. #PictureBook Letter I #BBRc
