Meet Jack. A little boy with sparkly blue eyes and two hearing aids. A little boy whose only word is "NO!".
When "No!" is a battle and Mummy is tired and Jack is tired too, what does Mummy try next? Based on a true story, Jack Signs! is the heart-warming story of a little boy who is deaf, his typically hearing sister and their Mum. When his Mum discovers a book of sign language, their family life is transformed and Jack blossoms with his new-found communication skills.
Integrating "sign along with me" icons, which prompt children (and their parents) to sign along with Jack as they read the story. (Please note: Linked demonstration videos are currently only available in American Sign Language / ASL and British Sign Language / BSL. We hope to make further videos available soon in other sign languages.)
