Description

"This book and DVD package were written to introduce the basics of ASL in a non-threatening manner to hearing parents of children who are deaf. The easy-to-master format moves along at a comfortable pace which allows parents to become progressively more competent in ASL. Parents work through the basic principles and grammar of ASL in easy, gradual steps which include practical lessons and activities used for developing ASL competence. This is one of the most comprehensive training parents can expect from such a resource." -Harris Communications
