This guide accompanies two engaging storybooks, The Mud Cakes and The Treasure Hunt, designed to support young children’s speech, language and communication development and their foundational knowledge of positional words.
Shaped by both scientific insight and lived experience, the guide delivers digestible research relating to communication and language development together with evidence-based strategies for supporting young children. It makes complex theory highly accessible and includes real-life examples, practical pointers and activity prompts to use while reading the storybooks. Throughout, the book also links to a variety of short videos on the companion website, bringing the theory to life in both concrete and joyful ways.
Used alongside the storybooks, this accessible guide is an essential tool for early years educators and primary teachers working with children from three to five years, as well as speech and language therapists and parents.
