For those needing additional support, a hierarchy of prompts and multiple-choice options is provided. The collaboration of author Bethann Smith and illustrator Brock Smith brings a fresh and dynamic approach to the series. Bethann's extensive experience in speech therapy, coupled with her dedication to enhancing communication, drove her to create a comprehensive resource that addresses numerous language aspects.
