{"product_id":"i-talk-like-a-river","title":"I Talk Like a River","description":"Winner of the Schneider Family Book Award\nBoston Globe-Horn Book Award Winner\nA New York Times Best Children's Book of the Year\n\nWhat if words got stuck in the back of your mouth whenever you tried to speak? What if they never came out the way you wanted them to?\nSometimes it takes a change of perspective to get the words flowing.\n\nI wake up each morning with the sounds of words all around me.\n\nAnd I can't say them all . . .\n\nWhen a boy who stutters feels isolated, alone, and incapable of communicating in the way he'd like, it takes a kindly father and a walk by the river to help him find his voice. Compassionate parents everywhere will instantly recognize a father's ability to reconnect a child with the world around him.\n\nPoet Jordan Scott writes movingly in this powerful and ultimately uplifting book, based on his own experience, and masterfully illustrated by Sydney Smith, winner of the Hans Christian Andersen Award, the highest international distinction given to author and illustrators of children's books. A book for any child who feels lost, lonely, or unable to fit in.\n\nFinalist for the BC and Yukon Christie Harris Illustrated Children’s Literature Prize\nA Charlotte Zolotow Honor Book\nAn American Library Association Notable Children’s Book\nILA Primary Fiction Honoree\nNamed a Best Book of the Year by The Wall Street Journal, People Magazine, NPR, Kirkus Reviews, Shelf Awareness, Bookpage, School Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, Publishers Lunch, and more!\nA Horn Book Fanfare Best Book of the Year\nA Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection\nA Bank Street Best Childrens Book of the Year!\nA Chicago Public Library Best Book of the Year\nA CBC Best Picture Book of the Year\nA Kids' Book Choice Award Finalist\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0823445593\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.0823445593.LN\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Like New\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Scott, Jordan|Smith, Sydney\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in like new condition.
