Complete Description

If your child finds talking to people a struggle, this is the book to get the conversation started! 
     Once a child gets used to talking with other people, many life skills can develop more easily as they grow up- from making friends and shopping for themselves, to being interviewed and eventually getting a job. In this practical guide, Heather Jones offers advice, born of experience with her own son, which will help you teach your child the principles of communication. Including a host of strategies and examples, she shows how you can allay fears, build confidence and teach your child to enjoy conversation.
