Rebecca Reads: Hands & Hearts by Donna Jo Napoli

A mother and daughter spend a day at the beach together where they swim, dance, build sandcastles, and, most importantly, communicate. But their communication is not spoken; rather, it is created by loving hands that use American Sign Language.

Readers will learn how to sign 15 words using American Sign Language with the help of sidebars in a gentle introduction to some basic words in ASL.

Rebecca Reads is a children's storytime series devoted to helping children learn about the world through books. As a nanny, Rebecca realized that the majority of children's books feature a male character, even when the characters are animals. This series is specifically geared toward presenting children with a diverse group of female characters with the goal of empowering young girls, promoting creativity and imagination. As an actor with extensive babysitting experience, Rebecca brings her excitement and silliness to each video, ending with a goodbye song and demonstrating that reading can be fun. A great free resource for nannies, guardians, and parents.
