Not For Serious Sign Language Students, August 31, 2003
This review is from: The Signed English Starter (Paperback)
Perhaps you're looking at this title because you see the words "sign language starter" and you are wanting to start learning sign language. Well, please do not let that shape your opinion on the use of this book!
If you are truly interested in learning to sign with other members of the adult Deaf community, you do NOT want to learn Signed ENGLISH. That is something only used by deaf children in school to teach them the English language. However, once grown, a deaf person changes over to ASL or Pidgin Sign English (NOT the same as Signed English).
If you want to communicate with deaf children, this book is sure to be useful. However, if your'e seriously interested in REAL sign, please step to the other side of the aisle and pass quickly. Just this deafie's opinion! :o(

Best sign language book I have seen so far. It is laid out in logical groups of words. Easy to follow chapters. Can also use the index for quick reference to find a word.
