Where Is Baby?: A Lift-the-Flap Sign Language Book Hardcover – March 15, 2007

by Michelle Cryan (Author)

Here’s a fun, interactive way to teach youngsters ages 1- 4 basic American Sign Language signs. Where Is Baby? A Lift-the-Flap Sign Language Book features 12 basic questions in ASL with English translations. Little ones can find the answer for each question by lifting the flap on the opposite page to reveal a charming, full-color illustration. The questions and answers engage children with everyday subjects of high interest to them: Where is the airplane, train, bug, cat, elephant, shoe, pizza, Mama, Daddy, sister, and of course, Baby.

By introducing young children to sign language, Where Is Baby? can help them strengthen their vocabulary, grammar, and other language skills while also allowing them to communicate their needs and feelings at an earlier age. This sturdy book offers an enjoyable, instructive way for parents, teachers, and other caregivers to begin reading and signing together with children at a wonderful age for learning.

A professional Web developer, Michelle has been interested in illustration since childhood. She studied fine arts with a concentration in figure drawing while earning a BFA at Alfred University's College of Ceramics. After graduation, Michelle created educational illustrations for Prentice Hall, an internationally renowned publishing company. Michelle blended her passion for children and education by working as a teaching assistant in the Sherburne-Earlville (N.Y.) School District. Since 2007, Michelle has managed Web communications at the State University of New York College at Cortland.

Her first book, "Where is Baby?" a lift-the-flap sign language book, was published in 2007 by Gallaudet University Press of Washington, D.C. Michelle wrote and illustrated the book after seeing how quickly her son picked up sign language as a toddler. "It's amazing that pre-verbal children are able to articulate their needs," Michelle notes.

Michelle and her husband, Mark, have two children, Jared and Miles, and reside in Upstate New York.
