Germanās book is a thorough and helpful guide for addressing word-finding
problems. I found the examples and diagnosis to be especially helpful so
that I could target my personal word-finding difficulties. Most of all,
this book gives me hope, that there is help for my word-finding difficulties.
In addition, as a teacher, the strategies will help me support children
with word-finding difficulties in my classroom.
