My Name is Julius...I Stutter...and So What! Maurice Allen

This book is for every child who stutters, especially to my two sons who are among the more than 3 million people across the country who stutter. Stuttering can cause anxiety, sadness and emptiness in a child wondering why "they just can't get it out". Children who stutter are often teased by other children and that will cause even greater stress and anxiety. I want this book to serve as a reminder to all children that no matter what you think might make you different; but it doesn't take away the potential you have and who you are. Julius is a kid who stutters, who reminds us that stuttering is a part of him, but it doesn't define him, and that goes the same for you too.
