Books for families
Through these personal accounts, thirteen families share their journeys as their deaf children learned to listen and speak. Each story is different, reflecting the diversity of deafness and the families’ different cultures, hopes and dreams for their children. They describe what it was like at the start, when they did not know what the future held for their children or what might be possible, and how far they have come since those fraught early days.
As a resource for newly diagnosed families, and the professionals who support them, this book is both inspiring and reassuring, whilst being open and frank about the challenges faced along the way.
