I Talk Like a River

I picked this up because goodreads recommended it and my library had it.

I think that there is some disagreement whether or not to label stuttering as a disability. I have shelved it on my disability shelf because I don't think that disability is a bad word. I did a surface search and one site said that calling stuttering a disability increases the victim mindset. That made me cringe.

I do understand that stuttering may be temporary and/or situational.

Anyway that's not the point of this book.

It's a lovely poetic little story about a kid who had difficulty talking and imagery that helped him feel better. It was about his feelings and experiences.
