Hardback. Condición: Good. Retells the familiar fairy tale in English and American Sign Language. Includes information about ASL and how it is used. Steiner, Pat; Cozzolino, Sandra (ilustrador).

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Laurent Clerc won lasting renown as the deaf teacher who helped Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet establish schools to educate deaf Americans in the 19th century. Now, his character as a young boy growing up in Paris has been captured in the novel Laurent Clerc. In his own voice, Clerc vividly relates the experiences that led to his later progressive teaching methods. Especially influential was his long stay at the Royal National Institute for the Deaf in Paris, where he encountered sharply distinct personalities -- the saintly, inspiring deaf teacher Massieu, the vicious Dr. Itard and his heartless "experiments" on deaf boys, and the "Father of the Deaf," Abbe Sicard, who could hardly sign. Young adult readers will find his story richly entertaining as well as informative.…

Hardback. Condición: Good. This biography tells the story of how one person completely reversed the reigning critical assessment of sign by providing that it was a true language with a full complement of linguistic components, thereby, revolutionizing the governing theories of all language research. William C. Stokoe's achievement was not easy, however, and he did not succeed overnight. Without a specific linguistics background, his observations were met with amusement in some quarters and outright scorn in others by hearing and deaf authorities alike. Stokoe's total commitment without self-agrandizement, however enabled him to persevere through the years. The book describes his efforts, and shows how he launched new thought on linguistics in general, and also instilled pride in deaf people in the USA in their newly recognized native American Sign Language. …

Hardback. Condición: Good.
