Book Title: Dancing with Words: Signing for Hearing children's Literacy

Author: Marilyn Daniels

Selection Statement:

This book was published by Bergin and Garvey in 2001, in both hard- and soft-back editions. It received excellent reviews and has done extremely well, both in the United States and Europe. At present it is being translated into Japanese. I receive daily E-mails from teachers and parents of young children, concerning the positive affect the book has had on them and the children in their lives. I am proud of the contribution Dancing with Words continues to make to the literature concerning childhood literacy.
