Diagnosed with autism,five-year-old Coco Bradford, from Cornwall, had begun speaking at the age of two - only to cease completely.
But this week her silence ended when, out of the blue, she asked her astonished parents for 'more toast please'.
Her mother and full-time carer Rachel, 48, said: 'It was a really magical moment - it was the first thing she has said in three years.
'Her exact words were ''I want more toast please''. She just kept saying it and we were just like "oh my god".'
Coco found her voice again after starting a special type of speech therapy called Applied Behavioural Analysis, or ABA in September last year.
