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 (with linked videos currently available in British Sign Language - BSL and American Sign Language - ASL only).
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.
