Long Version:
What does your baby want to tell you? You can find out – even before your baby can verbally speak – by using baby sign language. Signs of a Happy Baby: The Baby Sign Language Book gives you everything you need to start signing with your baby:
• How to link signs into your everyday activities so you can discover why your baby is crying, whether it’s because something hurts, she’s hungry, or she wants her diaper changed.
• What to do when your baby is frustrated and you don’t know why. Signing gives pre-verbal babies a way to communicate and can later ease the tantrums of the “terrible twos.”
• Inspiration from stories from parents on how baby sign language eased mealtime battles because children could sign what they wanted to eat and when they were all done; how signing built bridges in bilingual families; and how children who signed initiated early signing conversations about what the child was fascinated by, like trains, balloons, dogs, and more.
• An extensive photo dictionary of more than 100 American Sign Language (ASL) signs.
Plus, each chapter includes a bit of parent coaching so you can discover how signing with your children helps to build better communication, better understanding, and better bonds between you all.
It’s super easy to learn baby sign language and William Paul White and Kathleen Ann Harper will show you how. Pick up Signs of a Happy Baby today. What your baby wants to say will blow you away!

Bio: William Paul White
William Paul White never planned on becoming a baby sign language instructor, but when he realized the impact that signing with his own children had on their communication skills and cognitive development, he was inspired to create his own baby sign language curriculum. William has since brought baby sign language classes to more than 13,000 families, helping parents and caregivers communicate with their children long before their babies are able to speak verbally. Signs of a Happy Baby consolidates his teaching into a comprehensive resource for families, including a photo dictionary with easy-to-follow photos of fun and practical American Sign Language (ASL) signs, and tips for integrating sign language into everyday activities. As a dancer, William appreciates how physically expressive sign language is. And, with his degree in psychobiology (the study of behavior from a biological approach), sign language appeals to his love of how the brain processes and learns language. William is passionate about the importance of early communication with children. “As you grow your signing vocabulary and teach signing to your child, you’ll build a window into your child’s world,” says William. “You’ll discover a special place, filled with what delights, intrigues, and fascinates your baby. Your life will never be the same.” William and his co-author/wife, Kathleen Ann Harper, are parents to two sons who still sign. They live in the San Francisco Bay Area. |
