About this product

Product Information

Gorgeous pencil illustrations of diverse human hands-male and female, young and old-signing the letters of the alphabet make this alphabet book an incredible learning resource. The entries are further supplemented with objects that begin with the same letter. Author Laura Rankin was inspired to create this book by her deaf stepson. It is a wonderful introduction to the alphabet and to sign language, and the art is beautiful enough to merit sharing it with adults as well. Boston Globe-Horn Book Honor Book "Brilliant . . . Hauntingly luminous."- The New York Times Book Review "Exquisitely detailed, realistically portrayed hands of different ages, sexes, and colors demonstrate the positions for the manual alphabet used in American Sign. An excellent introduction."- Kirkus Reviews

As described... A+++ on shipping and price... C (and that's being generous) on time. If you have forever and a month of Sundays to wait around then by all means do so. The price was great and the seller communicated wonderfully and the item was packed well so it wasn't damaged during transit all A pluses in my book just took a little bit longer than I anticipated.

  • The Handmade Alphabet by Laura Rankin (1996)

    This is artwork is art at it's finest. Truely displays the beauty of ASL for the visual language that it is. I bought two of these books, cut out and laminated the pictures to hang on my classroom walls. Great learning visuals for any ASL student. I stongly recommend to any interested in the American Sign Language.

  • Gift quality - NOT

    Came with stickers on the outside and black ink stamp on the inside. Was an old library book resold. Content is what I expected but wanted to give it as a gift and can't.
