Great start to Sign language

I had this book growing up and have loved going through it with my kids now. They really enjoy it too! Simple, everyday words to be a good intro to Sign Language

Very Pleased

The description of the book was exactly what I received. VERY PLEASE with purchase. Thank you

Learning to sign

My kindergartener has been learning a few signs at school and I remembered this book from my childhood and wished I still had mine. I'm glad I can find a used copy. As a kid of 7 or 8 I taught myself the alphabet and a few other signs. I never had an opportunity to use the signs myself (except when spelling out words in front of my children like 'candy' or 'movie'!) I look forward to sharing this book with my son, and I also wish they would make a new printing.

It's a shame it's out of print

The first two pages are of Linda Bove showing the signs for the alphabet. Each page after that is based on a theme (for example: "In the morning" has pictures of Linda doing words like "Good, Morning, Alarm clock, window, comb, toothpaste, mirror..." followed by another page with drawings of Sesame street characters and settings with each of those signs in it and something along the line of "How many things in this picture can you sign?" (with all of those things in it). The themes are "In the morning", "The family", "School days", "Colors", "on the farm", "playground fun", "Opposites", "Action words", "People in the neighborhood", "Spring", "Summer", "autumn", "Winter", "Utensils and food", "In the woods", "How people get around", "In the Jungle", "The way you feel", and "Nighttime". The final two pages of the book are dedicated to signing the numbers 1-10.It is a fantastic book and I hope they decide to start printing it again so my friends can stop looking for discarded library copies. ;)

Great sign language book!!

This book is a great place to learn sign language. There are pictures of people acting out words and phrases. Makes it fun and easy to learn a little sign language!
