This is a very easy book that will help anybody to learn sign language. I've seen people doing sign language mostly on TV where they talk about a natural disaster, or presidential speeches and many other things.

I loved how they had the hints on every page this made signing words in a fun way that we can remember.… (más)

As sitting in lectures, speeches, or even concerts with interpreters, I am always intrigued and wished I could sign even some if not as frequently and quickly as them.

This book is written to where even the smallest kid could be read aloud and shown simple signs like please, thank you, help etc. and are shown the signs in the illustrations. This book can be read by as little as first grade but may interest even 5th graders who have deaf friends or want to learn about the deaf community.… (más)
