5.0 out of 5 stars You Can Learn Sign Language, April 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: You Can Learn Sign Language!: More Than 300 Words in Pictures (Paperback)

An excellent book for children to learn the basics plus many more. One of the few books with more than the alphabet I've seen. This book includes many words used in everyday conversation and also teaches simple phrases such as "nice to meet you" and "where do you live." The photographs that show how to form letters and words are of actual children of multicultral backgrounds. It's a great resource - - and fun for children and adults alike.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, April 12, 2000

This review is from: You Can Learn Sign Language!: More Than 300 Words in Pictures (Paperback)

My ten year old loves this book. She and her friends have learned how to communicate with a deaf neighbor. It is lively and colorful with pictures of real children of different backgrounds instead of dull illustrations. I would recommend it for adults as well, because it has basic phrases and words that anyone interested in sign would need to know. An excellent resource for parents, kids, and teachers.

I home school my children and picked this book up at the library. My 8yo picked it up as soon as we got home and hasn't stopped learning new words. It's a great book that any child could learn from as well as adults. It's so good I've decided to buy it to add to our collection.
