NEW!
OUT NOW!
We Went to the Animal Park Today,
24 page, colour, paperback book, 210 x
210 mm A sign language book for
children.
Written & Devised by Garry Slack
This charming, beautifully illustrated book, uses both
English and signs taken directly from British Sign Language
to produce a quirky and funny story about a visit to a zoo
by a little girl and her daddy.
Written in rhyme, the father and
daughter meet each of the animals who live at the park.
The little girl is very keen to make friends and chat to the
animals but her daddy is not convinced and threatens to eat
his hat if the animals respond!
On each page we are introduced to a new animal and learn the
sign for each of the creatures.
Finally after meeting each of the animals, daddy gets a big
shock!
- Contains full colour photographs and descriptions of over 15
signs, each one sourced directly from British Sign Language
- Fully illustrated throughout
- Suitable for both deaf and hearing children
