What if words got stuck in the back of your mouth whenever you tried to speak?

After a morning of being unable to speak his words aloud, of feeling mocked and feeling misunderstood, a boy is taken by his father to visit a river for some ‘quiet time’. It is here, at the river, that the boy’s feelings begin to grow and spiral but it is also here that his father teaches him a precious life lesson.

With stunning, evocative illustrations by Sydney Smith,
this moving picture book gives insight into the experiences of someone with a stutter. A deeply personal book for the author, Jordan Scott, who explains in the afterword how this story is his own.
