For those planning classes, this book is a gift as the lessons plan themselves
Journal of the British Association of Teachers of the Deaf
Should be required reading for all beginners, especially parents, to give them an insight into what educating a deaf child really means

Absolute brilliant book very easy to pick up, I wanted to learn sign language after learning a bit of makaton, I memorised about 10 signs within 10 minutes
- Amazon Reviewer,
Having never attempted to learn any form of sign language prior to buying this book, I was suprised how easy it is to learn. This book, although basic, will give you an excellent understanding of British Sign Language and will enable you to get by and form basic sentences and, dare I say it, have conversations by signing. It doesn't pretend to be advanced or an oracle in its field but it really is the best book you can buy if you are starting out learning to sign
