The Sound Tales Series

Sonny Says S, Ruby Says R and Lola Says L are the first books in The Sound Tales Series, a set of books geared towards helping children learn how to articulate and read the most difficult consonant sounds. These books are perfect for any teacher, speech pathologist or PreK-2nd grade child and will serve to engage children and support evidence based literacy and speech acquisition strategies.

Lola Says L is available now!

Lola Cat has a fun day planned for her friends at the beach, but the list she made for them is missing the L sound! Luckily, Lola’s friends come to the rescue by helping her master the L sound and write the list correctly.

This is a perfect curriculum companion material for a classroom, speech therapy or for anyone with a child who may need a little extra help with the L sound. Lola and her friends make learning fun while evidence based practices make learning effective!

Targeting the TOUGH speech sounds!
