"Children with complex learning problems (CLP) need to learn important language and academic skills. These children are often in situations that may not be meaningful to them and hence are too complex for learning to occur. Due to the importance of understanding and telling stories for all children, Nurturing Narratives was developed as a story-based language intervention for children. The model emphasizes comprehension, “tailors” language to the child's developmental level and stresses social engagement. The acquisition of language and literacy skills is embedded in a variety of story-related activities." - PUBLISHERS WEBSITE This book was written for speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and others who are mentored by SLPs. It is divided into three sections consisting of (a) and overview of the background and treatment principles of Nurturing Narratives, (b) guidelines for creating individualized Tailored Stories, and (c) guidelines for conducting Story Lessons (Nurturing Narratives intervention sessions) using evidence-based therapy techniques.”

Section 1 reviews the background and principles of Nurturing Narratives, Section 2 consists of information and tools for creating Tailored Stories and Section 3 includes information on Nurturing Narratives intervention.
