Description
Children who are deaf need extra help learning either a spoken or sign language, so they can develop their thinking, learn to communicate, and explore and interact with the world. Helping Children Who Are Deaf supports parents and other caregivers in building the communication skills of babies and young children. The book also explores how deafness affects a child's ability to learn language, as well as develop mentally and socially.Developed in partnership with families of children who are deaf or cannot hear well, community-based disability organizations, deaf adults, teachers, health workers and other experts in more than 17 countries, Helping Children Who Are Deaf is practical, accessible and appropriate across varied conditions and cultures. - from Amzon
