Congratulations on your book.
I am trying to locate the email for the BOBBY search. Could you please send
that web address to me again. I am hoping to have some of my consumers work
with me to do readability assessments of some of the materials which I
located.
Thanks

This book, published by Aspen Publishers, is about teaching patients who
have poor reading skills, are older, have visual or hearing impairments,

practical strategies you can use to increase your effectiveness as a health

they can understand.
