| Summary |
Some children can hear and can speak, yet have trouble understanding or producing utterances. Shula Chiat explores the stumbling blocks which lie behind their struggle. She focuses on individual children, the extensive examples which illustrate their difficulties, and the step-by-step search for the source of those difficulties. |
