Being different, being strange, is normal. Everyone is who they are. That’s why the most important thing is learning to laugh at yourself.

PARLO COM EL RIU

Jordan Scott

Publisher: Libros El Zorro Rojo
Price: €14

What happens when words get tangled up and take root in your mouth every time you try to say them? “I wake up every morning surrounded by the sounds of words. Words I can’t say,” the protagonist of this story tells us. One day, his father picks him up from school, and together they walk along a riverbank, watching the water ripple, swirl, and crash against the rocks. There, the little boy discovers that the river stutters too! It’s not magic, but when words are difficult, he only has to think of the river’s strength to feel better.

Jordan Scott has written this powerful book from his own experience, using poetic language that exudes authenticity to describe what children who stutter feel. Besides being delightful, this book for early readers helps identify feelings such as loneliness and self-acceptance. The magnificent watercolors of multi-award-winning Sydney Smith envelop the reader in a blend of emotions: from the claustrophobic anxiety of a classroom to the breathtaking beauty of a glimmer on the water as a father helps his son reconnect with the world around him. A moving picture book for anyone who has ever felt alone or simply different.

EL GRAN VIAJE: DE LA TARTAMUDEZ A LAS ESTRELLAS

Luis Miguel Mourareu Torres

Price: 15€

Contrary to what official sources say, stuttering can be corrected. I achieved this by changing my lifestyle, not by implementing a method. When I was eight years old, I had one foot on the edge of a balcony and the other dangling in mid-air. Today, at 48, I give talks on personal growth and how to correct one’s own stuttering. It’s not a method, but a lifestyle change. And it shouldn’t be limited to those of us who stutter; as a form of personal development, it’s useful for everyone: stutterers and fluent speakers alike.
