“Sometimes I stutter, sometimes I don't — but what I have to say matters most.”

A faith-based children's book · Ages 7–10

About the Book

A Story About Finding Your Voice

All Sue wants to do is run away. But she doesn't.

Sue knows what it feels like to open her mouth and have the words refuse to come — to feel the stares, the waiting, the heat rising in her face. She wants to disappear. But her mother knows something Sue hasn't learned yet: the pause isn't the problem. The pause is where the power is.

Through singing, acting, faith, and the gentle wisdom of her mother, Sue moves through her stutter and discovers something extraordinary — her voice was never broken. It was just waiting for the right moment. And when she finally speaks, she learns the truth: her stutter isn't something to overcome. It's something that makes her brave.

Complete with affirmations and therapeutic guidance, Stuttering Sue is designed to be read together — by parents and children, teachers and students, speech therapists and the kids they serve. Every page is an invitation to breathe, to believe, and to speak.

The Arc at the Heart of Every Page

Pause · Breathe · Speak

🌊
Stage One

The Pause

Sue feels the stutter coming. She wants to hide. But pausing isn't failing — it's the beginning of something brave.

🌿
Stage Two

Breathe

Through her mother's wisdom, her faith, and the rhythm of singing, the breath becomes her anchor and her bridge.

🍃
Stage Three

Courage

She speaks in spite of the fear. Courage isn't the absence of the stutter — it's choosing to speak anyway.

Stage Four

Speak

“What I have to say is worth the wait.” Her voice always mattered — it just needed the right moment.
