My Friend Daniel Doesn’t Talk

Author: Sharon Longo

Description: 

This beautifully illustrated book can be used to educate children so they may understand that there are children like Daniel who are so “shy” or socially anxious that they are unable to talk to others. It offers empathy to the child who is still mute at school, helping the child and peers to understand the situation better. This book may be suitable for friends and/or siblings of a selectively mute child. This is also an excellent classroom resource to help teachers understand SM and explain it to their students.
