While the nursery rhymes "signed" here may not be your most favorite from childhood, they work well for teaching a "hearing" child some basic signs in a fun way. Solomon Grundy gives the days of the week, 30 Days Has September gives the names of the months, Buckle My Shoe gives numbers up to twenty, Crooked Sixpence is fun with lots of repetition to give confidence, and Mother Goose is just for fun (and to tie in with the theme). Most hearing children learning sign language for fun would be insulted to learn the "baby" nursery rhymes, anyway, wouldn't they?

I was very disappointed in this product. The signs were difficult to understand and the pictures were not great. Also, some of these were not the most common Mother Goose poems and there were only a few anyway.

Nice book, just not all familiar Mother Goose rhymes. Solomon Grundy, Thirty Days Has September, One, Two, Buckle My Shoe, Old Mother Goose, and The Crooked Sixpence. This isn't for babies. It would be fine for older kids.

I got this book for my daughter to use as she is studying Deaf Education in college. I had heard of only one of the nursery rhymes myself. I was disappointed in this book.

Solomon Grundy, 30 days has September, The crooked sixpence, Old Mother goose, One two buckle my shoe--I was looking for Mary had a little lamb, etc. I returned the book. (The sign pictures are fine--I was just looking for common nursery rhymes)
