A manual and self-tutorial on the standardized tool for evaluating communication and symbolic abilities of children whose functional communications age is between six months and two years. The test can be administered by a certified speech-language pathologist, early interventionist, psychologist, and other professionals trained to evaluate developmentally young children. No one mentions the earlier, presumably abnormal, edition or editions, and there was some fear that they were locked in a dark closet somewhere to be forgotten. Fortunately it is the test itself rather than the manual that has now been normed. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
