Coaching Comprehension, Creating Conversation Nurturing Narratives: Story-based Language Intervention for Children With Language Impairments That Are ... Other Developmental Disabilities Such As ASD

Great practical resource with lots of ideas to get you started. Highly recommended. CD included with the book helps initially to give you lots of examples of narratives, making planning easier for the busy therapist/ educator/ parent.

We did not receive a cd with the book.

Great for SLP's and language interventionists, this book is an awesome find whether you are a novice or seasoned veteran working with kids with complicated language problems, including kids on the autism spectrum. It's easy to digest with plenty of evidence-based references to support the interventions presented. There are clear and concise strategies for tailoring stories at three levels of difficulty, materials and book suggestions, and examples to support understanding. It comes with a CD that provides ready-made stories to get you going, over-view charts for the different story levels, materials to share with parents and colleagues, an entry-level checklist and more. This is definitely an "I can use this tomorrow!" kind of resource. P. Gordon, SLP

The book is great, but Amazon neglected to send the accompanying CD. The CD contains material that is not included within the book.

Very informative and well written. I work with children who have varying skill sets and this book is a great asset.

This is a great intervention approach when working with children with complex language problems. It is easy to follow and the authors provide multiple ready to use stories so you can begin using the program immediately.

Some useful ideas for working on this important language and communication skill; however, the appendices that include the resources for carrying out the assessment and therapy, as well as the evidence base, are on the "accompanying CD", which did not accompany the book I was sent!
