Free of technical jargon and easy to use, this book is for speech pathologists, speech assistants, and parents who wish to teach a child how to say the "r" sound and use it in conversation. Everything you need to know about teaching a child to say and use the "r" sound is clearly shown in a step-by-step format. Each lesson builds upon the successes of previous lessons so that the child is challenged to use the "r" more often until she is able to use it in conversation.

pretty good:
this book is pretty good. A little wordy for the Speech Language Pathologist, but for a parent or assistant - it is very clear cut. I wrote up a quick summary of the book for me to reference in 2 pages. It does work :) I was finally able to elicit a good /r/
A great tool:
Have not completed the whole book with my daughter yet, but already she is making great progress. The book is written such that it is easy to follow and breaks down the chapters in easy manageable exercises with visible results as you go along.
Great Book!!!:
This book actually lays out a lesson plan on how to teach your child to pronounce his "r"'s. I am most grateful. The step by step instructions make teaching this sound easy. My son for the first time is making his "r" sounds. I would recommend this book to everyone.
Review of "Help Me Talk Right" teaching the "r" sound:
This book gave me a few additional ideas that I am using with 2 of my speech/language students who are having a difficult time achieving correct production of the /r/ sound. It also reinforces the techniques that I already use with other students working toward production and carry-over of the /r/ sound.
