  This book develops the ideas presented in Children's Speech and Literacy Difficulties Book I: A Psycholinguistic Framework by focussing on how the information gathered within a psycholinguistic framework can be used to plan intervention for children with speech, wordfinding and phonological awareness problems. It illustrates how the psycholinguistic approach has been implemented in different contexts and with different cases through a series of practical activities and discussion of current research relevant to practice.
