"A dozen studies consider the acquisition of signed language by young children, based on the proposition that theories of language acquisition and reading development must account for signed languages in order to understand the universal, modality- specific, and language-specific characteristics of language acquisition and the learning mechanisms that account for reading. They show that early exposure to signed languages results in a very different developmental outcome than exposure beyond early childhood." -Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
