In this episode, I am joined by Sherry McMillan, author of 'My S's Are Messes.'

Sherry discusses her journey from avoiding writing about her speech sound disorders to embracing them in her acclaimed book, 'What the Seal Saw.'

Inspired by interactions with readers and Speech-Language Pathologists, she wrote a new book specifically for children with speech differences.

Sherry explains how the book uses energetic illustrations and word pictures to describe the experience of having a speech disorder.

Sherry also talks about collaborating with Speech-Language Pathologists and incorporating therapeutic elements into her story to make it a useful tool for families and professionals. She also discussed the importance of empathy, patience, and different communication methods, highlighting the significant role of support systems in treatment and daily interactions.
