1.0 out of 5 stars being deaf (imagine), May 29, 2004

If you are looking for a good book for your young student this is NOT it. Information in the book is not correct. It comes close but misses the mark. AND the alphabet that is pictured on pages 22-23 is NOT the American Sign Language Alphabet but as near as I can figure a mix between the Norweigen and Spanish Alphabets.

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible, November 10, 2004

This book should be banned! It is full of misinformation. The American Sign Language manual alphabet illustrated on p.22-23 is incorrect. I am afraid well meaning children may learn the alphabet wrong. This is a terrible book. No library should give up valuable shelf space for this.
