This was a very sweet book that sets an excellent example of how to be a good friend to someone with a speech pathology. My 5-year-old son has a speech delay and while he doesn't stutter, I would be absolutely thrilled if everyone treated him the way Jeremy's friends and family treat him in this book. He's a lucky kid!

Jeremy's Big Role is a short picture book with very cute illustrations and an easy to follow story. There is also some sort casual queer rep, which is awesome! I would recommend this for all kids ages 3 and up.

A very early reader, whose narrative is strong enough to make the message and the real point of the book a most accessible one. For this isn't about the story, as such – it's about stammering. Jeremy so wants to be the wolf in the class's presentation of The Three Little Pigs, and he gets the role, but his stutter doesn't really allow him to get the bit about the puffing across fluently. Here, however, he has a strong supportive family, teacher and school full of classmates who know how to have his back, so that by the end of the story we can all accurately say that Jeremy spoke in class today. This then is perfect, and perfectly readable, positivism for stammerers, and a book to have on hand to show anybody else, to make them au fait with how stuttering should be accepted.

Jeremy's Big Role is about a young boy who wants to be in the class play, but is nervous because he has a stutter. I loved how patient his teacher was with him, and how his parents and classmates supported him. This is a great book for any child, whether or not they have a stutter. I liked the facts about stuttering and tips at the end.
