Customer Reviews

This is a great learning tool!

I have just started learning to sign. I used the smaller pocket version of this book to learn my first 600 signs. I purchased this larger version to continue my learning. The descriptions are clear, and the memory hints are very helpful. I recommend this book without reservation!

Fabulous resource for any signer...novice to sage!!

As a professional sign language interpreter, I am often asked by non-signers to recommend a book for them to begin learning this beautiful, expressive language...this is always the first one I mention!

Absolutely wonderful

The clear easy-to-understand descriptions and pictures make using this dictionary a breeze. One of the best signing books I've seen.

The best sign language book I've seen.

Unlike a lot of the other ASL books, this one has clear and precise diagrams as well as written descriptions of each sign. This book was such a relief to find after trying to make sense out of the badly drawn signs shown in most other ASL dictionaries and workbooks.
