I am a speech-language pathologist, and I work with many bilingual families. I see young children with delayed communication skill development, and your site enables me to share all the information with the families I meet, regardless of their primary language. Thank you. All the information on your site is family-friendly, and provides additional links for critical information about child development and developmental issues. Also the joy of reading is made easy and fun for all!
