When a boy who stutters feels isolated, alone, and incapable of communicating in the way he'd like, it takes a kindly father and a walk by the river to help him find his voice. Through this powerful and uplifting story, poet Jordan Scott uses his own experiences to reveal what it’s like to be a child who feels lost, lonely, or unable to fit in. Compassionate parents everywhere will recognize how they, too, can reconnect their children to the world around them.
Jordan Scott is a poet whose work includes Silt, Blert, DECOMP, and Night & Ox. The recipient of the 2018 Latner Writers' Trust Poetry Prize for his contributions to Canadian poetry, he has also written a book for children entitled I Talk Like a River. He currently resides with his wife and two sons in the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island.
