Sound Advice created an e-book, “Teaching A Deaf Child To Hear And Speak: Perfectly“ (A Father’s Love), by James Hall, whose daughter hears and talks with bilateral cochlear implants.
Mr Hall contacted Sound Advice after four years researching how a deaf child can acquire speech, and documenting his findings.
