Description
It's time for Nursery.NO!It's time to leave the sticks outside.NO!It's time to walk home.NO!Meet Jack. A little boy with sparkly blue eyes and two hearing aids. A little boy whose only word is 'NO!'.When 'No!' is a battle and Mummy is tired and Jack is tired too, what does Mummy try next?Based on a true story, Jack Signs! follows the journey of a little boy who is deaf, his typically hearing sister and their Mum. When his Mum discovers a book of sign language, their family life is transformed and Jack blossoms with his new-found communication skills.The book integrates 'sign along with me' icons, which prompt children (and their parents) to sign along with Jack as they read the story (British Sign Language - BSL and American Sign Language - ASL).Jack Signs! is written by Karen Hardwicke, who is the parent of a young deaf adult and has been a Teacher of the Deaf for over ten years.
