Written by licensed a Speech-Language Pathologist, When Words Are Tough is a fun and interactive book that will teach your child how to use American Sign Language (ASL)!
WWAT uses rhyming narration, colorful illustrations, and interactive scenarios to teach children how to sign the words: please, more, all done, eat, and thank you. Readers are the book's main characters; therefore, they are encouraged to complete the step-by-step instructions along with the narrator.
While ASL can be used as a mode of communication for individuals who are deaf and hard of hearing, it can also be used to support your preverbal, nonverbal, and verbal child's communication skills.
Parents and educators: use this book as a FUN tool to teach your child or student about an alternative form of communication to utilize when words are tough!
