Synopsis:
An alphabet book presenting words and illustrations from the classic Pooh books introduces both hearing and deaf children to the written and American Sign Language alphabets.
Reviews: reS-Gr 1-Each letter of the alphabet is shown in uppercase and lowercase print with a line drawing of a person signing it. In the middle is a colorful illustration by Shepard chosen at random from one of Milne's books. Beneath that is another drawing of a person either signing or finger spelling the object, person, or action depicted. There is no consistency or relationship among the pictures. Few if any of the signs would be used by someone learning sign language, especially since some are proper names found only in the Milne books. The signed alphabet and numbers on the endpapers can readily be found elsewhere, so even that inclusion adds nothing to this pointless book. This attempt to cash in on Pooh's popularity is basically a sellout.
