Title: Too complex for (non) words!
Review: I had high hopes for signing with my baby and bought this book, but was overwhelmed and rather disappointed. What I soon found was that ASL (American Sign Language) which is a great tool for the deaf community is too much for me to learn (I'm college educated, but I'm a new parent who has to work for a living!) However, there are other books out there (see Baby Signs) that are much more free, more intuitive and more supported with real research than this system is. You don't NEED to learn ASL with your baby, you and your baby can create your own language. Your baby is probably already teaching you one. Do they wave "bye bye"? do they raise their arms when they want to be lifted? Then they are creating their own wonderful, original sign language with you that will free you from all of this books charts and lists!
Is the review positive or negative?
