[Guest guest]

Hi all -

I am an usborne Independent Consultant - you can view this book on my

" other " website at http://www.ubah.com/C1857 . I started selling these

wonderful books because they are so wonderful for speech stimulation and

vocals. I have begun targeting SLP's and Early Intervention departments and

they are going CRAZY over them!!

Thought you would like to " see " the book if you are interested....
