FOR DEAF AND HEARING CHILDREN,
By
This review is from: Moses Sees a Play (Hardcover)
Today, Moses and his school have some special visitors. They are the actors of The Little Theatre of the Deaf. They present plays in a special way. Moses' teacher, Mr. Samuel invites a hearing class to see the play with Moses' class. Manuel is with the visiting class. He is new and speaks Spanish. Moses knows Manuel feels different and tries to sign to him. Manuel and Moses discover they do have something in common and a friendship begins. So what is it that draws Manuel and Moses together? Moreover, how does The Little Theatre of the Deaf present the Cinderella? You will have to read the book to find out! Millman writes and illustrates the Moses series. Millman's modest illustrations blend perfectly with the reflective storylines he creates. The Moses series' easy-going, imaginative approach teaches deaf awareness in an unassuming way. Learning new signs with each book is an added bonus. Moses is an inspirational role model for both hearing and deaf children. This is one series I highly recommend.

BRAVO ! Let's all become actors with 'flying fingers' . . .,

This review is from: Moses Sees a Play (Hardcover)
Author-artist Isaac Millman has created a captivating series of books for deaf or hard-of-hearing children - and for all who have concerns about those who are hearing-impaired. My computer helped me stumble on these books & follow the road to 'Serendip'. What Luck!
"Moses Sees a Play" not only teaches the uninitiated like me some A.S.L. (American Sign Language) but it injects understanding and fun. There is a storyline revolving around young students at a school for the deaf - - and their interaction with others who DO have hearing. They make new friends, and they are motivated to do their own 'acting-out' which reminds us that 'acting out' sometimes means making trouble! So Reviewer mcHAIKU wonders if Isaac Millman will work on a story about resolving conflict, and how large is the vocabulary of average hearing-impaired children, anyway? Your watercolors have great appeal & keep readers focused on those flying fingers. Would you please make some Halloween paperdolls of MOSES and his friends? Thank you for the wonderful concept & for stimulating my 'continuing education'. |
