Summary: Great book of ASL for kids
Comment: I read the other reviews and I will clarify. I looked at the book and it is in ASL, no "initialized" signs as seen in signed english. It is one of the best books of it's type. A couple of the signs are hard to read the direction or orientation of the movement, that is the case with ANY of these books. There are always going to be a couple that are hard to put down on two dimentional paper, because it is a 3-D language. I noticed the sign for "Drive" is really "car", common mistake, and a "classifier" was used for "ship". Overall, a very good source.

Summary: My First Book of Sign
Comment: This Book has very nice bright pictures but it is very hard to
follow as far as knowing what the hand movements are. There is a section in the back of the book that has sign descriptions for every sign but it's very slow going if you don't know the sign and you have to turn to the back of the book to check hand position. I was quite disapointed in this book.

Summary: My first Book of Sign
Comment: This book is an excellent source to teach children and even adults sign language. The illustrations are accurate in their represenation of sign. It is coloful and visually attractive which makes it easy to read. The black and white manual alphabet, the fingerspelling, signing and aspects of sign provide excellent directions and pointers to singing correctly. The sign descriptions are a great supplement to the illustrations.
I recommend this for parents, teachers and students as an itroduction or foundation to sign language.
It would have earned 5 stars if it differentiated between "sign language" and American Sign Language".
Being an educator I congratulate Baker for writing such a helpful book.
