Reviews:

Mr. Knapp writes a wonderful tale of friendship, building self-esteem and the understanding of others with disabilities. This children’s book is about a squirrel who stutters and how his disability affects his life and those around him.  Stuttering Stan learns that friendship, understanding and self-respect are important for everyone.  This book should be read by all children and adults alike to reaffirm those important life lessons that Stan’s story brings to the forefront.

Tammy Flores,Executive Director  The National Stuttering Association

Children who stutter often bear the emotional burden of being targets for undeserved teasing and bullying.  Stuttering Stan is such a gift to those children as well as to any child who is teased.  It gives them an empowered model for handling those bullies!  Thank you for this book, Mr. Knapp.

Catherine S. Montgomery, Executive Director American Institute for Stuttering

Mr. Knapp has written a touching story about friendships, respect, courage and compassion.  A must read for every child, especially those who stutter.  This exquisitely illustrated story shows how being a friend can make others feel good about themselves. Every child is special in their own way and like many of Artie Knapp’s other stories, this humorous tale shows that you can do anything if you believe in yourself.

Kristin Garrison, NIE Manager The Cincinnati Enquirer 

Artie Knapp’s knack for identifying the things that worry children shines in Stuttering Stan Takes a Stand. His characters, displayed in especially lovely illustrations, and their interactions, are those young children will recognize from their experiences on playgrounds and in their classrooms. Embedded in this appealing story are important messages about human kindness and acceptance of challenges. This is a book I will be recommending to educators everywhere.
