Description

Charming, full-color photographs of basic animals plus illustrations of their corresponding signs offer children ages 1 to 4 a fun way to learn their first signs and vocabulary words. 
Studies have shown that babies who learn to sign can communicate at an earlier age than those who learn verbal communication alone. Other research indicates that children strengthen their grammar and vocabulary skills by learning sign language.
Animal Signs and its companion book, Word Signs, offer children exciting new worlds describing favorite things and animals while also making learning language skills fun!

 
 
 

Reviews

Delightful, charming, both books [Animal Signs and Word Signs] would be felicitous choices for sign language teachers, to enhance verbal and initial reading skills. Engaging and fun.
— Silent News

Both of these inviting books [Animal Signs and Word Signs] have immensely appealing color photos. One can readily see these two publications eagerly used in kindergarten and beginning grades as well. Highly recommended.
