Maggie O’Farrell is a brave woman who has fought a battle with stuttering her entire life and wants to use her gifts to bring attention to the speech problem and foster a better public understanding of stuttering. Her new children’s book stresses the importance of self-acceptance and conveys a positive attitude. Gone are the dark ages of the not-so-distant past when children who stutter were made to feel ashamed. With the ratio of males who stutter far outnumbering females, Maggie O’Farrell is an important role model for girls and young women struggling with stuttering. Her success with speech therapy as an adult strongly conveys that speech therapy knows no age limits.
