Huh, What Did You Say?: May is 'Better Hearing and Speech Month'
Date:5/16/2008

e emanating from the car next you, probably driven by a young adult, with top of the line woofer speakers.

How do we educate our children and ourselves? A good beginning is this wonderful illustrated book, Listen Up! that follows the lives of two teens, a girl and boy, who face similar problems with hearing loss. As we follow their story we learn about the different ways that one's hearing can be affected and what preventions can be taken to preserve one's hearing. We also learn how a compassionate friend can come to your rescue.

As founder and president of ETH, Ms. Maguire continues to fund the organization and has dedicated herself and her resources to educating the public and eliminating the stigma associated with hearing loss.

*The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) has declared May Better Hearing and Speech Month since 1927 to provide the Association and its members with a public education platform to raise awareness.
