Charleston, SC, March 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Spectrum of Cars: 3 Short Stories About Cars is a new children’s book that features embedded speech lessons and immersive illustrations to get children excited about reaching early childhood speech milestones.
When Tonya Huff Baradaran’s son was diagnosed with speech delays and later early signs of autism, she set out to learn the best ways to care for his needs. This led her to create a book for her toddler to teach important skills leveraging short stories through books to initiate and facilitate communication.
Spectrum of Cars: 3 Short Stories About Cars is a joyful, interactive book that gives children the opportunity to practice opposites, color recognition, counting, shapes, asking for help, and more. Designed for parents to share with their children, young ones will have a smartly crafted, exploratory space for learning these concepts. Best of all, this teaching occurs under the background of many toddlers’ favorite subject: cars.
With stories about car characters making friends, exploring the world around them, and learning to express their needs, this picture book is as exciting as it is helpful. For children who enjoy Llama Llama Red Pajama, Dr. Seuss and I Love You to the Moon and Back, the book is a fun, engaging read that offers educational value especially for students with speech delays.
Spectrum of Cars: 3 Short Stories About Cars is available for purchase online at Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com. For more information about the author, please visit any of her social media platforms or her website: https://www.funspeech.org/
