Customer Reviews

Best book I've read about raising a deaf child...

Paul Ogden does an amazing job at covering all aspects of raising a deaf child. I felt as if someone was reading my mind and understood what I was going through. It was well written and very thorough. I've read many a books after finding out my daughter was hard of hearing. This book is at the top of my list.

Great service

The book was in excellent condition and it looked like I bought it at a bookstore. I got all that I asked for plus some extra material. The sender gave me a brochure that she got from a Deaf Camp. It was a very interesting read.
