In this paper, the authors present brief reviews of 20 works of children's fiction in which a character stutters. The purposes of the reviews were (a) to provide speech-language clinicians with synopses of most of the currently available children's fiction involving characters who stutter, and (b) to explore how the authors of children's fiction portray certain aspects of stuttering, such as symptomatology, causation, and treatment.
