Publisher's Synopsis
Little Signs, Big Smiles: ASL for Tiny Hands introduces young readers to the world of American Sign Language (ASL) through playful rhymes, colorful illustrations, and meaningful everyday moments. Designed especially for babies and toddlers, this book teaches foundational signs such as thank you, play, more, and love; each carefully chosen to support early communication, self-expression, and connection. Each page features a fun, easy-to-remember rhyme alongside a clear, engaging illustration of the sign in use, creating an interactive learning experience that both children and adults will enjoy.
By introducing signs that reflect family life, basic needs, and positive social interactions, Little Signs, Big Smiles help bridge the gap between verbal and nonverbal stages of development. Signing empowers young children to express their needs, reduce frustration, and connect with others long before they can speak.
Whether shared at home, in early learning classrooms, or in language-rich environments, this book offers an accessible and joyful introduction to American Sign Language, nurturing communication, emotional bonding, and a deeper understanding of language from the very start.
Perfect for parents, educators, speech therapist, and anyone looking to support inclusivity and early language development through ASL.
