The Printer,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Printer (Hardcover)
A nice story about a deaf father and a hearing son, but I was disappointed that the story is not true. Since the father and son are 'real', I would have preferred a real-life story from thier experiences. You don't have to save people from a fire to be a hero in your son's eyes.

Interesting history; touching story,
By Mom Bo1 "Nancy" (Ohio) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Printer (Hardcover)
In "The Printer," Myron Uhlberg pays tribute to his deaf father who worked as a newspaper printer during the Depression era. The story portrays Myron's pride in his father while showing the discrimination deaf people faced during that time (and, at least to some degree, still do today). The printer shows that deaf people are not second-class citizens, and in fact, the hearing co-workers end up owing their lives to the deaf workers and their use of sign language. A fabulous book from a wonderful man!
