From Scribbling To Writing

All of the exercises in this book are ideas or stories expressed by drawing lines.

This is a book of ideas, exercises and a multitude of practice pages with line-drawing exercises, precision line drawing and spatial orientation exercises. They have been found to further the basic ability to learn to write legibly, fluently and without effort. They are intended to inspire therapists, teachers and parents to invent stories and make up further exercises. Exercises become progressively more difficult and more specifically goal-oriented. Soft cover, 8 1/2"x11 1/2", 99 pages. By: Suzanne Naville and Pia Marbacher.

Stop the chill before it starts, helping prevent the spasticity before it begins.
